I'll go ahead and tell you pretty much everyone is going to say bilstein

I have a stock height 08 an I just put bilstein 5100's on it last week and they ride 10x better than stock.

I've got Monroe's all around. They ride great!

Yup, they are the reflex. Can't beat the price!

what did those reflexes run ya for all four?

[strokinpower]

I just pricd them at advanced auto for $200 for all 4

[jl250sd]

with the leveling kit and rear blocks would i run with a longer shock or just regular stock sizes?

[dieselmatt]

That price of $200 sounds about right for all 4.

As for the longer shocks with the leveling kit and the blocks...it depends on how high you went. 2" leveling kit and should be fine with stock shocks. Any higher and you would want longer ones. For the rear you should be good unless you went larger than the F350 rear blocks. In that case you would also want longer ones for the rear.
