Anybody using Monroe Sensa Trac shocks?

I see they are offering a rebate on the purchase of 4 shocks which I need desperately!. Has anybody used these on their truck?

Yes, and they seem to work pretty good - I don't have a base for comparison, but I'm not unhappy with mine.

Thanks Jim. The Monroe Reflex's are $15 more per shock but the sensa trac looks like it might be better for our trucks. I've never had either of these but I want a nice ride.

I have them on all 4 corners of my truck and I am real happy with them.

I'm happy with my Reflex. Even with HD springs and an empty bed.

Re: Anybody using Monroe Sensa Trac shocks?

I put a pair of Reflexes on my Tundra. I put a pair of Monroe Sensa-Tracs on my '96. I'm running KYB's on my '69. I have to say that every shock I have is working very nicely.

Re: Anybody using Monroe Sensa Trac shocks?

I have 4 Monroe Sensa-Trac's on my '69, they work great and offer a smoother ride. But I also have new front/rear springs & front/rear sway bars. With all that stuff on, my truck handles like a freakin vette!!!

Re: Anybody using Monroe Sensa Trac shocks?

I use to work for Napa for 10 years and the sensa trac is the best shock for truck if you are looking for a smooth ride. The reflex shock has a dual valve system just like the rancho shock. Monroe puts out a promotion every year called shocktober. The rebate should buy 3 get one free. Alot of people don't know about the customer satisfaction ride and drive program. If you do not like the shock for any reason you can return them and exchange for another other shocks. Napa and Oreilly both do this promotion hope this helps.
