Shocks
I have a 1991 f250 2wd. It needs new shocks badly. I don't do any off road and twice a week I carry a super small load in the bed (maybe 500 pounds at most). Other than that it is just used on the road and high way.
I am looking for a real smooth ride and not stiff.
Bilstein, kyb, Monroe????
Thanks

I am leaning towards the bilsteins. I've heard good things about Ranchos as well. I will have to look into them more.

I have the Bilstein HD monotubes and they are GREAT.
I have the F250 4x4 extended cab long bed so it's pretty heavy, but these shocks are great for any type of driving. I don't off road very much at all, mostly on-road for me.
This is a great upgrade!

so i decided to order the bilstein shocks. i received the rear shocks today and i will be getting the front shocks delivered in a couple days. (why they sent me two separate packages...idk...)
i put the rear shocks on and boy that made a HUGE difference considering i would feel the most difference from the front shocks..i'm super excited to get the front shocks on and i will update when i do!!
thanks again!!!

^^^^^^^ A lot of sellers/retailers have multiple warehouses, which would explain the two separate shipments.
No surprise you're pleased so far; we put Bilsteins on both our 4x4 PSDs, and are really happy with them. Capable off-road, assuring control in the snow, and smoooove comfy on the Interstate.

Sorry for the story but I guess I said all that cause I bought all 4 shocks more for the rear than for the fronts, so I hear you on how much nicer the ride is on the rears. BUT I think you'll be even more stoked when the fronts get in, too.
