Shock absorbers

[Vmyrhaug]

Truck= 2003 silverado 2500hd 4wd torsjon cranked up.

I need new shock absorbers.

No lift, only torsjon cranked up a little. Still have 2,5" og wheel travel out.

Locking for best ride quality.
What is the best out there? Any recomandation?

Sorry for my bad english, still an retard from norway

What he said. I've been using these for over 10 years on 4 trucks and love them. Not only a ride improvement but they helped curb some of the body roll as well. :thumb: Can't go wrong with the Bilstein upgrade either.

Rancho...not impressed with my Billstein

Your best ridea quality will be to turn that front end back down to stock height.

rancho 9000xl ordered thanks for advice;-)

Any feedback with cognitos leveling kit with fox shocks? I've used rancho 9k XL previously on my dodge and was very impressed.

I'd recommend Bilstein 5100.

I have a new 2016 Chevy 2500 Duramax, switched out those factory hard jerking Rancho shocks with Bilstein 5100 and definitely made a positive difference.

Bilstien 5100.

Anything but a Bilstein 5100 if you're looking for ride quality.

If their like the Ranchos that came on the ford's with the fx4 package they are a cheap low grade shock below the 5000 series

I tried the silver 5100s years ago when I cranked the bars up, didn't care for the stiff ride
Changed to Rancho 9000s & it rode better even the bars cranked

I ran a set of fox shocks from norcal truck and they definitely rode a bit "firmer" than my buddy's bilstiens but I preferred the ride. It felt more confident. I have no experience with the ranchos.

All factory shocks are garbage, they are a lower quality than the aftermarket brand. So please don't base your opinion on factory shocks.

Installed rancho 9000 xl yestarday. Not driven the truck yet. Dash and heater controller is out to be rebuild. Also going too adjust valve lash before testing
