Default New shocks!!!

Hey peeps! So I have a '03 F150 4.6L supercrew that I want to hook up. I would like to buy new shocks since I'm due for some.

Any tips on which brand or place to buy some legit ones for a reasonable price?

Also, should I replace the stock springs?

Thanks, any info will help!

I think you will find its like asking what tires to put on. I went Ford Stock Replacement on mine. Bilstien 5100's are well liked as well as Ranchos. As for stock replacement I like it. smooth and made her feel like a new truck.

My $0.02..

Put Sensatracs on last night in the rear. Got a deal on the RockAuto website for a "whole sale" or some bs. Only cost $19 each.
