Man, can't imagine many mods easier to install than rear shocks. I used the instructions with pics from another thread and that helped a lot because the included instructions are garbage. It took me a half hour to install them and that included the time to take out and put away the tools and my work light.

The ride is greatly improved on the softest setting and I was able to notice right away when pulling out of my neighborhood and driving down to get gas. The XB is my wife's daily driver and this morning she told me the ride was much softer and much better than stock. So if she's happy, then I'm happy.

Not sure how much better the ride is over the Monroe Sensatracs though. Those were my first choice because of the price difference, but I couldn't get a set locally. Then I decided since my wife is the daily driver, I might as well go with what is considered to be the softest ride for her. I wasn't disappointed.

 

Yeah, it's a big difference!!

 

Now you need to get her a turbo.

 

I will be finding out if sensa tracs will be available for the xB from Monroe tomorrow. If I can get them for 70 bucks a pair I'll give them a try.

 

I haven't been able to make a direct comparo to the Koni's but I must say the Monroes are awesome, and an insane deal.

 

I like the Monroe's I have

 

Got the Monroes on the rear now and love them. What a difference over the OEM ones.
