Don't know if they are any good, but I got Bilsteins and would not trade them for any shock in the world. Buy Bilsteins

You can check with our sponsor to the FTE, but last I time I tried to buy the stabilizer/vibration dampner or whatever you call the little one in the front, BILLSTEIN does not make it. I used Monroe for the stabilizer:

Click on Bilstein - KYB - Rancho - Monroe - Edelbrock Automotive Truck Shocks and Struts - Shockwarehouse.com above, and you will also save freight and get a 5 % discount. Good luck

I put 5100 'Steins on my truck last month, way better than the so called "Rancho" shocks that came stock.
