Red..,
On washboards a slightly less stiff 4600 is a better choice, provided that you are not lifted. I run on washboards and speed bumps with and without my 16k 5er in tow. 4600’s vastly improve ride quality. I toss oem shocks within a few months of ownership.

Shock choice is continuing to be a huge pain point for me. I have put 5100's on past trucks, but to be honest, haven't felt a huge difference over stock. Better on body roll, but nothing really on the comfort side. I'm considering going with Fox 2.0 this time around (no experience with Fox). My main concern is we live on about 8 miles of gravel roads with sometimes considerable washboarding. While it's manageable, but tooth rattling, unload, I have real concerns about pulling loads down the same roads. Any thoughts/experience would be appreciated above what I'm reading above.

I've heard good things about the Falcon shocks. They're popular in the Jeep community. I considered them for my Wrangler, but ended up sticking with Bilstein. I'll be curious to see how you like them.

No, it's just the shock, no coilovers on the Super Duty. The ride height depends on the springs, and shocks have different part numbers for the different amount of lift.
