I just replaced my rear shocks with Monroe sensa track load level coil overs and so far I love them my rear end was starting to sag and that's why I bought these noticed a height returned to what I had when I first installed my shackles did some dirt/gravel driving driving at 50mph and it was surprisingly smooth so they seem to work great so far! I they replaced standard oem style Monroe shocks ( forget model)after 12 years they where actually still good but sensa tracks where a definite improvement now on to the front I would like to replace those as well and mainly thinking on the the Rancho rs5000 or the kyb monomax mainly due to price otherwise would go straight to bilstein most likely I have a 3" BL, lift shackles,and the load levelers, on 32x11.5 bfg ko's and was thinking about a small TT ~1" or so just to level it out more without changing the stock suspension dynamics to much needs new lower bushings,tires (11 years on those KO's !!!! Mainly only worried about dry rot and blow outs still has tread !)and alignment anyway. Sooooo as far as front shocksWhat would be the adequate choice I got mixed reviews on the Rancho and kyb is it worth the $ for bilsteins?............I drive mainly street with some beach driving in summer and moderate mountain jeep trail riding about once a year plus I haul a few hundred extra pounds of accessories and trail gear at all times and more when I go camping or fishing, or hunting.
