Magneride retrofit install?

[DKnight]

Is it possible to go back to Ford to have them install the OEM magneride?

Would probably be more cost effective to trade out for it.

Different suspension for Magneride cars at the back - or it was in the S550

Someone might be able to accomplish that, but it wouldn't be cost-effective to do so. It's akin to changing from a manual to an automatic transmission in the same car. Further, if that vehicle was to later be sold or traded, it's value would be reduced further still, by how much I couldn't say.

Two options I can think of.

As the My 25s are coming, maybe it's time to begin shopping for a '24 with Magneride. Your going to lose on selling yours (private or Carvana?), but 24s still on the lots (deal at a dealer) will be selling at a discount. Being in VA, I'd like to think you'd have a ready pool to choose from in that general area.

Begin reviewing your aftermarket options and tailor the suspension to your primary driving mode.

Take it from me; be very careful how much you put into the car unless you are going to be buried in it. I'm going through this right now; you will get hosed on resale/trade in value.

As the gents above have said, you may want to look at moving out of yours and into a "new" 2024 with Magneride.

It is actually a 2024 gt performance pack with active exhaust and 401a... Only thing we didn't get was the magneride cause I didn't know much about it, I just have been reading how amazing it is so I want to know if it's possible to add on...

Don't know for sure on that however there is a discussion on it over at M6G so they were looking into it on the S550.

Again though, anything you do that is not factory spec just know it will not really increase resale or trade value.

Coming from a guy that has had it in a few vehicles , 2 recently,

While it is very nice, i set it and never changed it. So meh

EDIT, let me elaborate a bit. My personal feelings... track is to harsh for street use because it thrashes the car around too much for public roads. Sport is good but depending on the car and road it can be squirrelly on public roads due to stiffness.

That said my 23 ZL1 and 21 Scat Pack Wodebody both lived in Sport.

Figure out how your going to use your car the most. Chances are for street use Ford has your suspension set for normal street use. The magneride is nice to have but an expensive option and expensive to repair. If your an aggressive driver you can set up your suspension with many great after market kits cheaper. I do change my magneride to a normal setting only when my wife rides with me. Its set to sport 90% of the time otherwise.
