Glad you liked them...would hate for someone to spend money on my recommendation and hate them.

What most people think is that the shocks control the body....they don't.
Shocks control the unsprung weight on the vehicle...wheels, tires, brake compenents, etc.
If you have bigger or heavier wheels and tires...you NEED firmer shocks to control those things better.....all that translates into a better feeling ride.

I run 4wd front shocks on the rear of my truck because I couldn't find a rear shock for a 2wd that was firm enough to control my heavy ass wheels likeI wanted....I even went as far as moving the rear lower shock mounts out closer to the wheels to improve leverage for the shock. You'd be surprised at how much difference that alone makes.
