I have a 2001 SE, automatic with 83,000 miles and the original shocks, front & rear, and standard suspension (no lift). I keep the car at my house in Southern Baja and the dirt road to the house is about 3 miles long. The road has serious washboard (especially on the uphill parts), potholes and rocks. The X is getting shaken to death with many of the plastic bumper/grill clips breaking or popping out. I'm always re tightening screws and bolts in the interior. Are there any shocks out there that would help with these roads. I usually am driving anywhere from 20 to 40mph on the road and I go back and forth a few times a day. When going camping I also drive 40 to 60 miles a month on dirt roads slight better than the road to my house . I don't want to go too soft as the car already understeers when cornering at higher speeds on pavement (30mph+). I also do a fair share of driving in soft sand but I don't know if shocks make any difference with that.
