 I'm can of confuse, from what I been reading on this forum, which one is
better? the sway bar and shocks, or replacing the radius rod kit for the
rear suspension, or boths? if anyone please tell me, and how, where, and
who can I get it from. I'll apreciate the info.  |

All three improve/fix different handling characteristics of your vehicle.
Shocks will improve ride quality. Shocks can be purchased for your Excursion at any parts place. http://www.summitracing.com is a good start. This'll run you about $250, I believe. It's been a while since I bought shocks. Rancho, Bilstein, Edelbrock are all good brands and there are several more, too.
Sway bar will improve turning/cornering ability. Summit also has these as well. They are made by Hellwig. $135
Radius Rods will improve handling as they help to stabilize the rear end. A user on this forum named "Landyot" makes these in his free time and is currently slowed production because he's tired of making money!!! j/k You should read this thread in its entirety to find out all about them and how to get a hold of Landyot to place an order.
