I really like how these shocks make the ride of my 2005 F150 4x4 so smooth. It feels like it's floating on a soft cushion but it's also very controlled and not mushy at all. They have really transformed the ride quality and comfort. I took my truck to some off road sections I'm familiar with and the difference was amazing. They soak up the bumps and undulations without any drama and no jarring movements. Cushion with control is the best way I can describe them. Glad I chose Bilsteins.
