I bought a set for my 2004 4x4 Diesel F250, with stock front leaf springs. Excellent ride, and significantly improved dampening, and handling. The truck used to bounce around on every small bump. Now it has much better road manners. Takes pot holes like they're not even there. Excellent upgrade. I will say that they're kind of a pain to install, but start by bolting the bottom first, then use your weight to compress the shock, slip the top eyelet onto the stud. Some grease also helps with the installation, and longevity of the rubber bushing.
