Shocks?

I have a 2000 F250 SD Powerstroke. I have the duel front shocks on the truck. I dont have the hoop set up just the extension peice. I also have the leveling kit on it. My question is this, without going to a resivoir shock (money reasons) what is my next best choice? I am in Phoenix, where should I go and what size do I need? Thanks all for your help I am new to this web site as well.

I have Bilstein 5100's on my truck and they work great. I think that's a pretty popular shock for the SD's as everyone I've heard or talked to has recommended 'em. As far as price and where to purchase, I'd get 'em over the web. I don't know of any particular place to purchase them (I traded my ex's 4 wheeler for the setup on my truck so I didn't really purchase them) but I'm sure you could find a good deal there. I'm sure others will be along shortly to help out.

btw- welcome to fte!
