Noticed today when rotating tires that one of the rear shocks is leaking pretty bad. Stock shocks have 52k on them so it didn't surprise me one was bad. Been looking at either the Bilstein 4600 HD or the Rancho RS5000. Can get the Ranchos' from Rock Auto for $331/shipped and the Bilstein 4600 HDs from eShocks.com for $358/shipped. Which one would you go with and is there a cheaper place to get them?

Also thinking of going with some Monroe Reflex, any thoughts on these? The truck is my wife's and is mainly used as a car.

Also, I have a Auto Spring leveling kit on the truck so I'm going to assume that I need to stick with a stock height strut since the spacer block is what is giving me the lift?

 

I've decided to go with the Bilstein 4600 and just reuse the auto spring leveling spacers I already have installed.

Quick question. The Bilsteins do not come with a lower spring perch so can a guy pull the spring perch off the factory strut or do I need to buy a new piece? The factory one looks pressed on but I'd hate to get into the swap and find out the perch is welded to the factory strut.
