My Ranger front bounds up and down too much over large bumps. I replaced the front shocks about two years ago (15,000 miles ago) with Monroe Sensa-Tracs. They are otherwise satisfactory. The Sensa-Tracs replaced cheaper Monroe-Matics, which I returned for exchange after a few days of use (they bounced even more).

I've read on this forum and others recommendations for brands such as Bilstein, Ranchos, Procomp, and Monroe. I am considering the Bilstein 4600s.

Opinions, recommendations?

 

Get the Bilstein's and you will be glad you did. It offers improved handling and better ride.

 

Yep. Bilstiens will be the answer. Not expensive either.

 

Bilstein for sure

 

wrong thread

 

 

I have 4 Bilstein's laying on the floor waiting to be put on the truck. The shocks that are on it are shot so regardless of what I put in it's going to be a big difference, but I'll let you know what I think of them

 

 

I've been driving on the Bilsteins for a couple of days now. I won't say it was night and day, more like an old truck with new shocks, but they helped a lot. Things don't rattle as much now. Handling is better. Not so much like a boat. We'll see how they hold up.
