I need to replace the worn out shocks on my 96 cherokee with stock suspension. Just looking for what's worked out for everyone.

Monroe Sensa-Trac on both of mine. I like them.

I have the KYB shocks, they work, but I think they are a little harsh. A more compliant shock would be nice.

That's what I just put on mine. They're about 30 per shock on rockauto right now and I like them a lot so far.

Oh, I've also got Sensa-Tracs on my Expedition and my Chevy pickup. My Explorer, when I had it, had them too.
