Shocks for 2WD
Hello, any recommendations for a better quality shock for my 2017 2WD gasser. Love the truck, hoping to make the ride a little better.

Bilsteins may one of your few choices. That’ll likely be my choice when it’s time to replace the OEM shocks on our 2019 F350 2WD.

I’ve looked at bilstein, but they do not list anything for a 17 and beyond. Do you need to contact them directly?

Bilstein lists the Series B6 4600 for my 2019 (both front and rear).

Thanks!

Hows the ride versus stock. Is this a 2wd application? Thanks

Bilstein’s page says they’re the “RWD” (2WD) application products.
I’ve not tried these. I did have Bilstein’s on our 2000 F250 2WD, and, while I didn’t really notice any difference in ride quality, they were still going strong after 14 years, whereas the OEM shocks failed after about three years.
