I have the monomax, 33" KO2's and I've had back surgery and still don't think they are harsh. To each their own, check the online price at AutoZone, limited lifetime warranty, plus side is the 20% off plus gift card they offer most of the times.

check 4wheelparts. they have a deal where if you order 4 there is a big discount.... I bought 4 bilsteins for just over $300 with shipping and tax. Seems like the best deal around.
have been on a couple of trips with the shocks... they are awesome!

the picture they use for the pack of 4 is wrong, but they have the correct shock.
4 Wheel parts were the people who told me they couldn't get them until March. I ordered the KYB's from Shock Warehouse and got 4 of them for $110. The guy there said that's the shock they sell the most of for the Monteros. For $110, it's worth a try.
