Default Shocks

Hey guys I've been looking into changing out the shocks on my 05 fx4 screw can and I was wondering what everyone else uses.

I have used Monroe Reflex on an Excursion 4x4, Superduty that was lowered 3/5 and a Ranger, all with excellent results. Its what will be going on my FX2.

I just put the Monroe reflex on the back and the quick struts on the front and I am pleased with the smooth ride.

I have the Pro Comp Ride Height Adjustable Shock. I've been told they are pretty much the same as the bilstein socks. Anyways, I love them.

I use bilstein's. Have on my last 3 trucks. They are well worth it in my opinion. The ride is firm but not harsh and very predictable. Rides better then a new truck for sure in my opinion. I always get complements on how great my truck rides. it has 120k miles on it.
