Shock replacement
Looking to replace the factory Rancho's on my 06. I've heard good things about Bilsteins, but I could use some more info. I don't do much of any off roading, mostly highway miles and some towing. What do you guys suggest? Thanks!

I have the Bilstein 5100's up front and they are nice and firm. I also like that they are zinc coated. In the rear is Pro Comp es9000's. When I bought my truck the shocks were blown so both are a great improvement. However there is a thread about blown out bilstein 5100's on here and they did not warranty. So that is questionable. The second thread King-Branch just went through all this and the adjustabillity of the Rancho 9000's may have been better for adjustments between daily driving and towing/hauling.
