New Shocks

well the ol 99 f150 is due for some shocks it seems.

She rides pretty good. Its just that when I go over a speed bump or something of the sort. She seems to bounce pretty good for a second after wards.
So I am gonna shock all 4 corners and probably buy from Oreilly's . Anyone like to suggest what would be a good replacement shock from them?

FYI 2wd not lifted (although that was the plan but its gotta wait a while). Daily driver and mainly pavement.

how much were bilsteins?

Called around to day and priced some shocks locally and seems like sensatrac are about $43 each. Are KYB really that special? Whats so great about them? I know alot of the guys on the mustang boards I frequent seem to like them.
