Brakes and Shocks

I have read in the past that the community like the Applied Rotor Technology brake system and Bilstein shocks.

I have a 2003 F250SD/SC FX4. Rotors are warped (again) at 30k, and the truck rides like crap.

With the search disabled, I cannot find the right product and model numbers I need for my truck. The stuff is expensive, so I dont want to order the wrong thing. Any assistance is appreciated.

Also.. Are these things really going to improve my truck?

TY

The bilstiens are easy and lift dependant. These are silver bodies and work with 4" lifts BE56245H5.

I have never heard of applied rotor, so I can't help there. However, I am currently using powerslot rotors and hawk pads. As soon as I can get my hands on a set of Disc Brake of Australia's 4000 series 6x6 slotted's they will replace my powerslots. For Calipers, the only upgrade I have seen is SSBC's force10/quick change calipers.

I don't think so. My look ups show that number, but bilstein shows others. F4-BE5-C296-H0 and F4-BE5-2818-H0.
