Shocks shocks shocks
Hi, I have a 2007 F150 and assume I'm going to need to purchase shocks in the very near future. Every time I hit a bump, pot hole, dip, etc the body feels as if it is just rolling over itself, nearly out of control at highway speeds. Quite alarming. I also notice that the chassis seems to flex more than it should while parked on uneven surfaces.
Anyhow, I know it's been asked, but the threads that I found were a little outdated; although, the answer(s) may very well be the same: as far as shocks go (possibly springs as well) what brands should I be looking at? I do have 17 inch wheels, 285 tires and a 2.5 inch leveling kit, which I think is irrelevant, so just a FYI. Just for everyday driving, should I stick with a stock shock or would it be worth my while to go ahead and get something aftermarket? I've never had to go through replacing any kind of suspension components, so this is new territory for me.
Thanks

KYB is another well-respected brand. The KYB MonoMax or Gas-a-Just shocks could be good options for your F150. I could spend the whole day in the garage, checking my car and repairing somethings if i would finally choose someone to write a paper for me from this list https://domypaper.com/. No idea why i am so bad with the decisions, even with the most simple ones, which don't have any influence on my life.
