.. hello to all.. I'd like to share my experience with MU,.. I've recently replaced my front shocks from KYB GR-2 (Excel) to Monroe Gas-Magnums. I found the ride with KYB's to be too harsh, felt like i was being dribbled like a ball when roads were not so paved well. so i decided to go for Monroe Gas Magnums, the ride was more civilized, with the shocks really doing it's job, but with one catch, the nose seems to diving too much when braking, wasn't to comfortable with that idea. having asked around, i was adviced to replace my front torsion bars, so i got a surplus torsion bars from a BIGHORN ( was thicker, and the adjusting bolt was the same)... it corrected the nose diving but preserved the soft ride of the Monroes.. by the way, i've also upgraded my rear leafs ( was sagging), used Rancho-Add-A-leafs, added 2 leafs, but removed 1 (2nd to the last), upgraded my rear shocks to Pro-Comp ES 1000.. now the ride is really comfortable,
