Shocks - Any Advice?

Hey guys,

1999, F-250 SD, CC, AT, XLT, 5.4L, 4X4, 80K miles.

This truck is new to me. I'm looking for advice on whether or not I should replace my shocks at this point. If so, any advice on what I should go with? And visa versa, what I should not go with?

I use this truck to pull my bass boat 90% of the time, the other 10% is very light duty backroading, not really offroading.

Thanks!!

Stone

I've got monroe on my trucks. Magnums on the 97 and monroematics on the 02. I like them, but I think I would go with Bilsteins next time, based off what I have heard, and read about them, both on this site, and from friends that have bought them. They are costly compared to monroes, but well worth the money from what I've heard.
