I have put several sets of monroe Sensa-tracs on and i have been very happy with them. I have them on both of my current trucks, 03 sport trac 4wd and a 2002 super crew F-150, They ride way better than the stock shocks. Just my 2 cents

I agree with the Morroe sensa-tracs. Put them on my 98 Sport. It is a better ride than stock.

monroe sensa tracs are great but if you want you can get the top of the line shocks installed for about $70 more... the edelbrock performer IAS shocks..... $65 apiece online

here, pep boys wants $220 installed for the sensatracs..... the edelbrocks are about $65 apiece online and you can buy 4 and take it in and have them do it....

I've put Bilstein's on two of my Explorers and have been very pleased. In previous posts regarding shocks the Monroe Reflex shock appeared to get high marks. You may want to do a search and read the previous comments.
