Default New Shocks and Tires

I just installed Monroe Sensa-Trac shocks, and the ones in the rear have the coil helper springs. Also, new brakes and new 265/75/16 Hankook RF-10 tires. Wow, what a difference. The truck now rides like a truck should. And the new tires look awesome. My old stockers must have been pretty bad because the vibration and pull was horrible until I got the new tires on.

I saw those Discoverer AT3's in the store, they look pretty good.

I've got 43k and counting on my AT/M's. I'd say I will get another 10k before switching them out. The wear pattern has been perfect too!!
