Default Best Off Road Shock

I have an 05 f150 4x4. i want some higher end shocks that will allow me to do some small jumping (10 ft max) and hit whoop sections. Im looking for shocks like fox 2.0 resevoir shocks or Pro Comp MX-6 resevoir shocks. Will these shocks be able to handle the beating? What about coilover racing suspensions?

Your looking for some king coilovers. They're pretty much the best.

pretty much King shocks, Fox or you can get a kit from Camburg, but that is more for pre-runner style trucks.

Curious but what kind of off roading do you do? Racing? I occasionally go run a little trail or find a little mud hole but have never tried to put my truck in the air! To afraid of the consequences! I'm just curious like I said! What's done to the truck already? Pics?

Fox, Camburg, DirtLogic, King and Donahoe. Not aware of any others building to the highest standard but they might exist... badass, any of these. I got the DirtLogics with my Fabtech kit, was gonna do Kings but shop told me to just take the Fabtech built Dirts.

I live in michigan and go to silver lake sand dunes. There are whoop sections and tire grooves in the sand. i just want to go fast and skip over top of the whoops. other than that its my daily driver. Those shocks i posted the link of are Sway a Way Race Runners..they are the exact same as the fox shocks just red, not blue.
