Anyone running monroe air shock?

Well here's the story, i got a 67 c20 and planning on buying new c10 coil spring to get a better ride quality and getting rear monroe air shock. So what do you guy think of these shocks as far as load capacity and ride quality is concern?

I have them in my El Camino and they work for leveling a small amount of weight. On your truck I don't think they'll make up for much.....

Since How long do you have these shock cause I was also wondering about the durability of the rubber balloon. Did yours begin to craked , do they hold air pressure well?

Durability seems good mine are five years old and still doing good. They hold air real good. I think on your truck you would be better off with helper bags that you could pump up when needed they would carry more of a payload.
