I am thinking of buying set of Edelbrock IAS Monotube shocks.
There ad makes them sound real good has anyone tried
them. I am looking for a less harsh ride then stock

 

Got them, love them. They do ride firmer than stock but you get less body roll and more control and they are compliant over large bumps.

 

Do it!!! I had them on my '99 F150 Extcab 4X4 and have them on my '02. The '02 was a Lariat FX/4 with the "Rancho Shocks"---read FoMoCo shocks painted white with a Rancho sticker!!!! The ride quailty/handling improved 100% over the fake Rancho shocks.
