F-250 Shocks?

[hoghunter]

I have a 2000 F-250 and I'm thinking that maybe the shocks need replacement but I am not sure. The truck has 75k miles and was wondering how long the original shaocks should last? Thanks in advance.

It all depends on how the vehicle was used. If it was worked hard it may very well need new ones.

they're old enough to need replacing. I need to do mine also.

Ditch 'em.

I just put a set of the Rancho RS9000XL's (the new 9-ways) on our Excursion and love 'em.

Tried a set of the Monroe Gas Magnums (the yellow ones) and they weren't adequate enough on the rebound. I wouldn't suggest them to anyone. They honestly weren't any better than the OE units I took off.

Agreed 100% , I put these on my 2000 F 250; 4x4; CC; PSD when it was about a year old and they really improved the handling.

yea I would go with the bilsteins also...If you can bounce the truck up and down the shocks are due for replacing and like stated above it all depends what you used the truck for (offroading,work,etc) that can affect how long a shock will last you.
