Can't deal with the bouncy ride anymore after two weeks with the Mach-E. What do I do?

What are your goals? Anything lower is going to have a stiffer ride but handle better.

Not sure how you do #3. Don’t the coil overs replace the stock shocks?

And isn’t #1 and #4 the same thing?
Lol... yup, you got me. May have had one too many cups of coffee to my own detriment lol.

Thanks for walking me through that 😅

Goal: smooth ride.

Possible COAs I'm considering and asking for input (Pro/cons/trade offs) from the experts.

2022 Premium AWD Extended

1) Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering springs + Blistein shocks (to the specs that Mark and others have so diligently tested)

2) Stock setup + Kw Coilover kit

3) Stock shocks + Eibach lowering spring + Kw Coilovers

4) Blistein shocks + Eibach

Thoughts?

This has been discussed quite a bit. You cannot get a smooth ride in the Mach-E. There is not enough suspension travel to give a smooth ride. It’s a heavy SUV with a sport car suspension.

Bilstein shocks will not improve a thing. The only shocks that can improve the bouncy ride are ones that have a firm rebound and soft compression which is opposite of the OEM shocks. The Koni’s I build up for the rear of the Mach-E are the one of the few that can be adjusted like this.

Where do you find these Koni shocks and what is the part number? Any help on this?
