I went with the Reflex, cost a little more, but are said to be good for body roll and diving under braking!! I drive some fast highway speeds, I need good corning handling!

I think that 9.5" of extension ain't half bad for 30 bucks.

Cool

well that most of the front suspension is replaced after my ball joint incident. i think i might as well replace all the shocks. i saw monroe air shocks sold at advance auto as a pair for $75. there air adjustable. wonderin if this is a good shock or if anyone has had good luck with them. any other shocks suggestions would be appreciated. i do some farming so i have to drive through fields but not really agressive offroad. i also pull trailers quite a bit. thanks again guys.
