quality on budget=reflex shocks, less than 50 bucks per shock

 

wow im not sure where you buy shocks, but im in canada, called my local big box store for a quote..... 88.97 per front.... 77.97 per rear.

 

jesus....come to detroit thats where i buy them lol. maybe go to 4wheelparts.com they sell shocks for around 40 dollars american, not sure about the shipping though

im not sure if you have a 4x2 or 4x4, best way to get what you want is to call in and order them if you go that way

 

hey thanks for that link, it also says fast and cheap shipping to canada.... thats always a plus. we get killed for automotive parts up here big time.
i hear guys getting things for so cheap in the states, damn
oh well, ill give them a call and see what they say

 

i just called 4wheelparts.com and spoke to a sales guy, what an A$$hole. my god, hes talking to me like im wasting his time when asking about shipping times and prices.
i said id think about it and call back to place my order..... he hung up on me.

jesus. 120$ to ship to me.... they carry bilstiens 5100. set of 4, $299. $419 final price.
wondering if ill get hit at the border fo more $

 

, just come to detroit!

man i was worried that would happen, just as i was editing my post to say "shop around because from what ive heard the customer service at 4wheelparts sucks lol

maybe this site?

i dont know if the 4 hour drive to detroit would save me any money. gas is $1.28 a litre. probably cost me the shipping cost in fuel plus 8 hours of driving. damnit. maybe i could plan a trip to commerica park and watch a tigers game while im there.
is $420 a good price for a set of bilstiens delivered?

 

idk ill let others speak about the bilstein pricing, but why not try directly from ford? and even with the prices you listed earlier, about the reflexes, you would still save like 100 bucks and get a shock that fits your needs.

 

I think that from my recent experience with Monroe Sensi-Track shocks on my unit that I'd probably never buy Monroe again. I'm not sure how their tuning would affect a lighter truck, but right now I'd like to rip all of them out immediately. I'll be rebuilding my suspension shortly using KYB units in the front and rear.

 

I got sensa tracks up front and its a boat

 

Just go with the "red" HD gas from monroe...not the lowest..."yellow"

They are the best cheap shock going.

Cheaper and better then a sensatrac IMO.

Lets say...."less to go wrong"

 

ah the more i read, the more im inclined to spend the extra to get something i wont be too disappointed in...
this is interesting, i call in the order to 4wheelparts.com and they quote me 120$ shipping, i place the order online and the shipping cost is $20. Is that a common thing? pay more to speak to an a$$hole i suspect

 

man you should call them back and in a firm tone tell them about this and ask why its different! complain and try to get lower shipping

 

The shipping calcualtion on the website is probably not right. I would bet if you placed the order you will get a call from them telling you that your order will cost a large number of dollars more.

I personally would not ship anything from the US unless that company will send it USPS (United States Postal Service). They are the cheapest hands down. It will be delivered on our end by Canada Post and all you will pay extra is the GST when you pick it up. The worst to use is UPS. I was hammered with extra charges. Their brokerage fees are off the charts and are not included with their already high shipping costs.
