What do you think

I changed the shocks about 2 months ago, I got the Monroe sensa-trac for light truck on the front, same on the back but with the "auto adjusting". The roads in Germany are terrible and I think the drive it worse than before the replacement. I can almost hear the entire cab rattle. Not sure if its the shocks or the roads taking their toll. Anyone have these before? I've already paid the bill so I'm stuck with them.

Here is the rear.

x2. Put a load in the bed and those shocks will be great. I had them in my old ranger.

I've sold quite a few sets with no issues, great shocks if you're hauling often.

Good to know, so its just the crappy roads. On the other hand, when I bounce the rear driver side I get a lot of squeaking. Obviously it's a bit dirty under there. Any clues to what the noise could be and what I can do about it.
