Replacing rear hatch shocks question
I have known that the ford explorer hatch shocks fit the xj but with some modification. What modification is needed if any? Also I've heard ford windstar hatch shocks are better. Has anyone done this?

Explorer shocks are WAY stronger. One will be sufficient, but then you have odd torque when closing and, apparently, this can warp tailgate.
Just go oem..

I thought the ones I found for the explorer were cheap but came to realize that Amazon has them cheaper and new. Good thing I didn't buy them.
