The RS9000 made the SDCCLB ride pretty good.
Maybe the owner of the truck I got the pic and parts #'s from will chime in.
I am sure he is talking about the rubber eyelet/spacer bushings being swapped out for quality polyurethane.

If possible 79F150400M, can I get the poly bushing part number for the eyelet? I am going to go with the RS5000X's series. They are half the price and it's inevitable that I will put a lift on it in the future. Thank you all for the help and advice.

5125 I think is the universal shock and has a few valving options.
No the leaf springs dont do the work. The shocks are needed to take the wood seat spring board feel out of the truck.
I find the dent crew puts tons of effort into other aspects of the truck then become lazy with steering and suspension.
I guess remove the shocks and drag the dang thing with a couple mules and were good to go.

I'm sorry...I don't know the part number...it's been many a moon since I dealt with it.
