Soft shock recremendations for a two wheel drive 2002 f150 single cab.

[Firefightingtexan]

I have a V6 2002 F150 single cab two wheel drive. A few years ago I replaced my blown shocks with Gabriel Pro Guards. They ride very harsh, and stiff. I can feel every little pebble on the road and if I run over a leaf.


I drive mostly on the highway, I’m looking for something more soft and comfortable. Thinking about Monroe OE spectrum or the Monro-Matics.

Anyone have experience with them with something similar to my truck?

Are you sure it's not rough riding tires?

Monroe shocks have always seemed like they were a bit soft to me.

Get the last 8 of the vin and call your local Ford dealer and see if you can still get oem shocks. They will probably ride the best.

I have the Monroe Sensa-Tracs on my 07 Ram truck and it rides great.

Bilstein 4600's are probably your best bet

Monroes are generally pretty soft, so you might be happy with them. Personally I prefer a bit stiffer shocks myself and did not like a set of Monroe OE Spectrums on a Suburban I owned - they felt too soft to me. But you would probably like them.
