Shock Absorbers

My 2017 F250 6.2L truck is now at 40K; I just replaced my tires with 295's; the ride is much more firmer and jarring now, is it time to replace my stock shocks?, any recommendations on which ones to get?

Worn shocks usually give a softer, mushy feel. If new tires and much firmer ride, I'd check the tire pressure. Oh shocks, I'd suggest either Fox or Bilsteins.

this x2^^^^ chances are those 295's (btw you need to finish the size cause who knows what the actual height of the tire is lol) are rated for 4k each. and the shop aired them to 80 psi. if youre running empty, run the tires at like 40-50. i'm assuming they're 295/70-18
