I have the Alko shocks on the front of my '91 MV, replacing the original
factory shocks.They seem to be well made and solid.

I would describe the ride as firm and controlled. They are certainly not
"harsh". Crosswind handling is much improved. I plan to mount some on the
rear when the snow melts around here ( sometime in June:-).  Best of luck in
your quest.
