I currently have KYB MonoMax shocks at all four corners of my Explorer sport. They are about two years old and ride pretty harsh. They are also prone to getting air in them after they have been on a lift, this causes a very scary feeling of the shocks bouncing uncontrollably at highway speeds until the air bubbles disapate.
I also read on some other sites that a number of people do not like KYB shocks. I know the shock of choice on this site seems to be Bilstein and I am sure they are awesome, but probably a bit to much for someone who wants strictly a road shock.
I do not want to make the same mistake again, as I did with the Monomax because I do very little offroading but do want a shock that helps my truck handle better.
I have heard the Monroe shocks are ok but was looking for something of a little better quality.
I have been looking at the Rancho line and am wondering if anyone has any opinion on them?
I would love suggestions on a good road shock that will help my Sport in the corners.
Thanks very much for any help
