Installed on 04 Ford F350 Crew Cab SRW long bed
Much better then the ford stock shocks. At 51k miles I had a front shock go out. Just finished installing the Monroe Reflex I did both front and back part numbers 911196 and 911195. Install was easy even had the woman help. Ride was MUCH MUCH better. I wanted to get rebuildable shocks but would have been around 130 a shock. This is a much better option.My truck is 2004 F350 6.0 Diesel 6-speed Single Rear Wheel Long Bed

Excellent.
Product was super easy to install. Truck rides a lot better then it did with the worn out shocks I had on it. Great product would buy again.

Decent Replacement Shocks For The Money!
Installed these on the rear of a 2004 Ford F250 Super Duty. The orginal rear shocks were rusting out so I figured it was time to replace them before they rusted off in the road!The old shocks were rusted onto the bottom shock bushings so we had to take a cutting torch to remove the old ones! We tried just about everything to remove the old bolts but no luck. We managed to save the bushings though by pressing what was left of the bolts out of the bushings. It took the torch and a 12 ton hydraulic press to get the bolt stubs out of those bushings!As for the shocks, not really much to say other than they were easy to install and they look loads better than the rusted out originals. Do they handle any better? To be honest, I can't feel any difference from what I removed than what I put on other than appearance!Maybe that's a good thing though, guess only time will tell :o)

Monroe 911196 Reflex Light Truck Shock Absorber
Just what I needed the front shock on my F-250 diesel truck was leaking oil did lots of research on shocks this seemed to be the best deal and after talking to my mechanic when I inquired if I should buy the high end shocks he suggested to keep stock type shocks on my truck, he was pretty impressed with these for the price. I replaced both front and rear shocks. The ride nice and improved my ride significantly.

Monroe Reflex
I replaced the Ranchos on my 03 F250 Diesel 4x4 with these Monroe Reflex's hoping to attain a softer ride. The truck had 49k miles. I got the opposite. The ride was stiffer, but it makes sense. My shocks were obviously worn. So, putting on new shocks would stiffen it up. Now I can feel every bump and groove in the road.

Perfect for 3/4-1 ton trucks
I have used these shocks before and have always been very happy with the results. These shocks last for a long time, and offer great handling and road feel without being really harsh and bumpy. I have used several other brands that were much more expensive and found that I was paying mostly for the name and not necessarily performance.I have these on all four corners of a 2001 Ford Superduty 4x4 and it rides and drives like new, maybe even a little better.

Seems OK
I replace my shocks because the originals, at 113000 miles, were inadequate. These are pretty and they do the job. They weren't too expensive and fit like designed. I'm happy.

This are good shocks.
This are good shocks....used on a ford f250 and no issues to date (one year)...I would love them better if they were slightly softer.
