Shocks for a 2004 dodge 1500 ram quad cab

dss56 · Mar 6, 2015

2004 dodge ram 1500 quad 4x4 85000k miles 4.7 motor

what is the better of the monroe shocks the reflex or the sensatrac shock front and rear?

Looking to replace the oem but stiffen the ride a bit more than oem shocks. Looking for better than oem.

Thanks

The reflex line will provide better response and better handling than the OEM will.

If you need to have heavier duty shocks for load or just because you want to have a HD ride being a little stiffer like a 2500 would provide then the GAS-MAGNUM would be the ones you are seeking.

Hope this helps.

Are the gas magnum made by monroe?

tks for the info

Yes.

OE Spectrum is their OEM equivalent, GAS-MAGNUM is their Heavy-Duty line, and REFLEX is their high performance.

They also have Load assist shocks if you really over load your truck and need to help the Leafs in the back a bit.

You can find out more here : Monroe Catalog

Hope this helps

I have the Reflex. They're pretty good. Still get wheel hop though. Nice ride.

Shock update.

I did buy the gas matic monroe shocks front and rear.

Daughter works at pepboys and had them install the shocks i was going to do my self but for $100 had them do it.

I do like the ride with the gas matic shocks. My original shocks were gone o4 truck with 85k miles.

So Im satisfied with the ones I got rides great much better
