Hey All,

I currently am not happy with my stock shocks. They do great on smooth road, however when bumbs/cracks are present they don't seem to do so good. In fact it seems like the tires bounce around and don't move like they should. That probably does not make sense at all, you would have to feel what I am feeling to really know....

Anyways I am curious if these are good shocks to replace stocks with, good ride comfort etc, Edelbrock IAS shocks or the Max Control Mono-Tube Gas Shocks if they aren't then what are your opinions on good shocks?

I had replaced the stock Bilstein shocks with Monroe Reflex up front and Monroe Sensa-trak w/ load assist springs in the back due to the extra weight I was carrying when working with my dad (400lbs of tools makes the back end sag quite a bit). The reflex shocks are a very firm shock. The sensa-trak shocks weren't as stiff, but did an excellent job of smoothing out the bumps. If you don't need more weight capacity in the back, I'd recommend Monroe Reflex on all 4 corners!
