    I know it's been asked a million times. Everyone seems to like the bilstein 4600 or 5100 shocks/struts. How many have installed monroe front shocks and what are your opinions?

    They're fine. You shouldn't have a problem.

    If you want stock replacements the kyb monomax is decent as well. I had a set and wish i had kept them on, my springs were the issue not the shocks

    Monroe’s are low level and disappointing typically. Not terrible, just ok. For not much more, you can get better performance. The KYBs are pretty decent. The Bilstein 4600s are better at doing truck stuff like hauling (more control).

    OK thanks. Probably gonna check out 4600s. Don't need anything special.
