what are the best shocks for a 97 expedtion 4 wheel drive

[irc fab]

I have a 1997 eddie bauer 4 wheel drive expedtion that i need all your input on which is the best shocks for handling and able to take these western ny bumpy roads. just put 4 new goodyear wrangler rs tires all new ball joints,4 wheel alinment and its riding stiff so i figure the shocks should be next. i don't go off roading but do carry alot of heavy items lol. so many different types to choose from not wanting to raise or lower it am happy where it is...
thanks any any advise would be appreciated....

I installed Edelbrock IAS shocks on mine 2 years ago and have been very happy with them. Handles noticably better but my original shocks did have about 100,000 miles on them. I would say they are somewhat firm but still a comfortable ride.

silver colored gas adjust bought from CarQuest auto parts. the box's had CQ logos on them so idk if its one marketed for them or what. supposed to be a "performance" type shock not a OE style ride/handling.

ok will check them out.
are they good handling and nice riding?
i just think there are better shocks then what came on them .
mine are stiff and feel every bump in these great ny roads lol.
have 110,000 rebuilt my motor about 3 ,ooo miles ago she runs like a top couldn't see buying used engine: with 170,000 for 1700 did her for 950...
just rebuilt the front end new goodyear rs tires front end alignment. need 2 lower track bar and some good shocks and ill make her last another 20 lol.
but all your input is deeply appreciated

yeah it rides nice and handles great. firm but controlled and AK roads are not the greatest.
