Shocks!
So what shocks are you running now? Any comments on what you have? Bilsteins seemed like they were hot a few years ago but been reading some bad reviews on here. I just want a smoother ride instead of the dump truck feel. They put ranchos on all the new trucks and i hear they ride like a cadi. thanks for the feedback
you can't fix stupid!

I've had Bilsteins on mine for the past 3 years and find it hard to imagine this nearly 4 ton truck riding any better, loaded or not. A buddy of mine has a 2000 PSD and he put a set of Ranchos on his, (not sure which model though), and it doesn't ride as well as mine.

OMG!! I have the shocks that start with B and haven't had a bad experience,,,,yet. I, at this time, would recommend them to anyone. I'm sure there are failures also, but I like the ride. Good luck with whatever choice you make.
