I have an 05 F350 4x4 dually and it needs new shocks and I was wondering which ones would work best for me. My truck never sees off road, it gets driven more as a daily driver than anything. It will pull an enclosed trailer 5 or 6 times a year pulling my car to the dragstip. Its not abused very much. what is everyones opinion of a good shock that would work best for me. Thanks

 

Bilsteins

 

I'm using Bilsteins, pull an 11k empty, 13 to 14 loaded, 5er and am totally happy with them.

 

Subscribing to thread. Plus does anyone have the part# for the right shocks? Best place/price to get them?

 

And how many miles before the OEMs need to be replaced? Pushing down on the bumper of a SD doesn't give much info

thnx, jack vines

 

Rancho adjustables !

Stock shocks are very short lived IMHO... I replaced mine @ 40k

 

edelbrock performer ias, best shocks around!

 

I have the bilsteins that came with my ICON lift. Awesome ride, what a difference.

 

Wonder who makes the shocks for Edelbrock and Rancho?

thnx, jack vines

 

billstein 5100 all the way...best I've had so far

 

Monroe makes the Ranchos, after all they own the company(Monroe bought Rancho in 1990). They probably make the Edelbrooks too.

 

I like my Rancho 9000's mostly because they're adjustable but they are also tough. Setting them in the almost closed position with a 4,500lb camper on your back is rough duty.

 

Bilstein 5100's and throw on a new steering stabilizer while you are at it. I got my shocks from shockwarehouse, and the rancho stabilizer from amazon. I did my shocks at 25,000 because I did the BTS kit and noticed a nice improvement, especially the rear.

 

You got me thinking about shocks for my jeep so I went looking and noticed there is 10% off bilstein right now.

 

Looking for new shocks for my stock 92 350 dually. Keep seeing bilstein 5100's... will they work on a stock ride?
