Great shocks
Installed on a 2002 Chevy Silverado Extended Cab 2wd. Truck also has large 275-55-20 wheels and tires. Stock height front, lowered 2" in the rear. Shocks work fantastic. Much better ride. No more body roll. Just a nice firm, controlled, planted feel.

Great Shocks
I installed these shocks on my 2001 dodge ram 4wd and I think the ride is better than new. I have a heavy snow plow and they control the bounce and rebound beautifully. I am surprised that a shock absorber at this low price is that good.

Nice upgrade over OEM.
Bilstein quality, budget price. Good choice to improve ride, load carrying capacity.

I recommend
Bought these for 2 silverados and love them. I recommend. They are stiff at first but soften up some after break in. These soak up bumps well. One of the trucks I put them on had 20's 275 55 20 and the other had stock 16's. Both drive 100% better with them. And while towing, they absorb very good. These are a must for your SUV or truck

Dangerous shocks DO NOT BUY!
These are dangerous as they are worse at handling any bump than having no shocks at all. I would return them but I figured it out too late why I couldn't keep my truck on the road any more and it is past the time to return to amazon. Do not buy these for anything at all or any other KYB shock!

don't recommend
Made my 01 dodge 2500 ram TD feel better than new! I didn't even know this old truck could feel this plush, nice upgrade from stock for sure, good value, wouldn't hesitate to buy again.Edit, took my truck on a dirt , washboard road for the first time since installation, was not impressed whatsoever! Was one of the most bone jarring experience's of my 58 year life!Fine for pavement, towing,etc. Taking away three stars.I cannot recommend these shocks on a 3/4 ton dodge Cummins if you're planning any off pavement.

KYB Monomax Shocks
I purchased these shocks to replace my stock shocks in my GMC Sierra. Shocks are very well made, and much stiffer than the stock shocks. Over the lousy roads in Utah the ride is a little hard but much MUCH better controlled especially in corners. As long as you don't mind a choppier ride, the increase in cornering stability is great. I tow trailers frequently and the setup was perfect for that. If you drive aggressively or tow trailers a lot I would highly recommend the shocks

Nice shocks
Replaced coil-overs on my RAM with these and my truck rides better and sits better. Seems to have helped my fuel economy as well.
