Help Selecting Shocks, Please?
Here I am again asking for advice, this time on shocks. I have a 1978 E150 with 351 & automatic. My old Monroe-Matics are in need of replacement. I am quadriplegic and I sit in my wheelchair while riding in my van. I have a bad back so I need shocks that will give me a ride that doesn't jar my back. I never town anything and there is never a lot of weight hauled in the van - me in my wheelchair weigh around 350lbs. and sometimes it's used to haul a few (2-3) 50 lb. bags of corn.
I've called a couple of auto parts stores. The first one told me that I want the Monroe Sensa-Trac light truck shocks. A second parts store told me that the Sensa-Trac rides pretty much the same as the Monroe Magnum. Back before I bought my present Monroe-Matics I tried Monroe Magnums and they were way too stiff.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
