Shocks which do you have and why?
This subject has been posted many times, and I post it again for updated information. My question is what shocks do you run and why? When needed, would you buy them again? I have a 2004 Dodge 35...

On my 2003 F350, I installed Monroe Reflex's because i found myself needing shocks in a hurry after I bought a TC and they were available att the local auto parts store. Traded for a 2008 F350, and put on Bilstiens because of their reputation here and on other boards.
Now with 50000 on the shocks, the rear of the truck wouldn't stay on the road when adding power on washboard. I took the Bilstiens off and put Reflex's on the back. While I still had the truck in the shop, if I step off the back bumper, the rear doesn't bounce at all, but the front wobbles up and down like a bobble head. I ordered Reflexes for the front too, just haven't had time to put them on yet.
I have a set of Bilstiens someone can have if they want to come pick them off the scrap pile.
