I had those garbage matic shocks on the front of my 98 4dr for a weekend and they felt just as bad as my worn out shocks, took them back and bought the monroe reflex and very happy with them over a year and still working like new

+1, I tried the reflex after I couldn't get the ranchos locally and I liked them a lot better.
