well i am going to get new shocks and i wanted to know what you all thought were better .

Monroe sensa-trac or Monroe Reflex. i searched it and ther was some help but just wanted your opinion.
i have the stock "de carbon" shocks with 185000 miles on the so they are so warn out. but they have no leaks or any thing just my blazer has a lot of body roll and a good through forwards and backwards when you stop and go. and i did see a vid. on you tube for bose shocks. has any one used them

btw i have researched the shocks and one place i looked said that monroe only last like 10000 mile. do they last long?

thanks to all

look into bilsteins. no complaints about mine. also, if you''ve cranked the tbars at all, you might wanna consider longer shocks

well i did do like an inch of t-bar crank but the shocks seem fine. but as i wsee it the shocks i have are the Delphi De Carbon shocks and they have lasted 185000 miles and i want some thing that can last that long without breaking. but arent belstien expensive? but if they are good. i want stiff ride and less body role. like now with my shot shocks i need to slow to like 10 to do most turns its that bad. but yea i will check
