Catahoula, Since you've asked the question, I've paid particular attention to the shocks on washboard roads. They're great. They absorb the bumps well leaving the passenger area comfortable. I love these things. The only thing I've noticed is that they've softened up a little since I first put them on. So on wavy sections of pavement or drainage dips in town, there is a slight feeling of body roll (best words I can use to describe it). So they could be a little stiffer for a better feeling of stability I guess. But as far as a good onroad and offroad balance for comfort, they're great. FYI, on a JK with a frame, the 'body roll' symptom may not even be there.
