I'm going to be buying some shocks this week and need some advise as to what to buy.

I have a 97 F-150 Ext Cab, LWB. I pull a utility trailer about three times a week and my bed is usually full of tool boxes, etc. Most of my driving is expressway driving, but occassionaly some rough dirt roads, what is the best recommended shock for my use?

 

rancho9000's are great because you can adjust them differently for highway, offroad, or towing situations. bad part is that theyre not cheap. if you dont want to spend taht much, then the edelbrocks are a great second choice. you really cant go wrong with either.

 

I installed the Edelbrock IAS Performers on my '00, and I bought Rancho RSX for my '01. Both shocks worked well, but IMO the Edelbrocks were worth the extra $$.
