What are Quad Shocks?
I am wanting to upgrade my shocks for my 96 F150 5.8. It has 2 shocks each side of the coil so a total of 4 shocks up front. Does this mean my tuck has quad shocks and also, if I replace front is it a good idea to replace rear too?

Yes, those are quad shocks. Yes, you should do front and back.
