Those are the shocks that I'm putting on the Ranger once hits 150k miles.

Great choice. I have them on the rear and have been very happy with them.

How do they ride fellas? Are they lift shocks or stock height? Interested.

I want to pick up a set of those next year. Tell us how they work out for you.

so far they are amazing. they are oem stock height replacements, but you can get them for a lift or drop if you want. you can have them custom valved as well, if you decide to run something at the far ends of the envelope.

the ride is stiffer than oem, but not so much that it knocks the kidneys around. i found it eliminated a slight bump steer and vibration issue in the front end. the truck now has nearly no dive in hard braking, the deck stays alot more level in cornering, and it can corner faster with more confidence now. at the back i get less skip and it seems to launch a bit better. i have the short wheel base so my ride was always a touch choppy, but that has improved loads.

i totally recommend these shocks. i had at least one blown shock on the old set and the rest were well on the way out, so the difference was remarkable. a couple drawbacks is they are a touch pricey and bit harder to install. dunno if i'd buy them if i didn't actually need shocks, but they are a definite upgrade if you need to replace a current set.
