Got the BDS Fox 2.0 shocks installed this morning (CCSB, gas, plow springs). The ride has definitely improved. Is it a Mercedes? No....but I wasn't expecting it to be.
Bumps are handled much better. I don't hear any noise (it is 55 degrees here). They seem to be less stiff than the Bilstein 5100's on my last truck. They are definitely firmer than my dead fake Rancho's and that's what I wanted.
Biggest difference I noticed is when I went over train tracks, the truck still rocks side to side but its much less than the old shocks. The new shocks seem to calm it down much quicker.
