New Bilstein shocks and Helwig stabilizer

Ok so i have now installed both new shocks and the Helwig. Im very happy with both. Stabilizer really helped level out the truck in turns and new shocks did even better. I had Rancho 9000's on before and they were much better than stock to. The difference is you get a little softer ride with 9000s but the truck rebounds just a little more after hitting holes etc. again not bad just different. Now the Bils make the truck feel more solid and handles slightly better. You feel a little more of the road but not in a bad way. Overall the Bils feel better to me and make the truck more fun to drive but both are great.
