Monroes or Gabriels then. Good shocks for the money.

I've got some Monroe Sensatracks. Comfortable and a good price. I've only heard good things about them also.

Another vote for Monroes... Sensi-trac or Reflex ones.

pro-comp 3000's would seem to be a comfortable ride and they're 4 for $134 right now at 4wheelparts.com.

i'm also looking for shocks. I want soft but stable, do the above mentioned shocks offer those properties or would you guys recommend others? I just installed a set togiht and they were way too stiff for me. I was running Rancho 5000's before and they were ok, but a little softer would be nice.

pro comp's

lets get some info on the pro comp 3000's and 9000's
the people that have them, how do they ride?

I ran the 3000s before my Rancho 5000s, they ride softern than the Ranchos, but stiffer than the stock. When the Ranchos wear out I'm going back to the 3000s since I don't wheel my Explorer anymore.

9000 are stiff. i like the ride quality maybe it just the way it drive.. its suits my driving style really good. my take on it is, if u have truck or suv, fix it up to your diving style.. if its mainly on the road get street shocks. in the dirt or snow, off road shocks. just my 2cents!
