Smile New shocks

Just wanted to say thanks. After reading many threads on this forum I installed some new Bilsteins on my F250 and the ride is a big improvement. Now I just have to get ride of the front end clunk. I am going to unhook the swaybar this weekend to see if that is where the noise is coming from.

Glad to hear that you like the Bilsteins. They sure are worth the $$$...IMO.
