    Hey all, I am ready to do all 4 corners of my truck with new shocks. I am debating doing Bilstein 4600's or KYB monomax shocks to save some cash. Does anyone have experience with the monomax shock?

    If you go with the Monomax stay with the oem replacement for the rear. The 565052 was too stiff on my stock truck.

    I bought Monomax for my 2001 all-the-way-around, and they work great. Bought them from RockAuto.com. By the way, they are bright RED.
