Exclamation Want to go firmer

New to the forum; looked everywhere but could not find the answer to my question

I have a 2005 Screw FX4, and I’m looking for a more aggressive suspension setup without changing any stock height on the truck. Is this even possible (yes I want a firmer ride then the FX4 is offering me. Not that it’s bad but I want it to handle better and still look stock)

Any comments would be greatly appreciated. And if I misspelled something I apologize in advance.

Thanks

Install Rancho Adjustable shocks. You can set ride firmness from 1 - 10 to suit your preference. I have them and like very much. Cost a few hunderd $$ plus install.

Go to air ride technologies. You can adjust the height as well as the stiffness.

Thanks everyone for the information.

Just curious "KiCk *** FX4" what do you mean by custom steel bars?

“04procompLARIAT” was wondering how familiar you are with the system. And if so if you know if you by chance know if the air systems lowers the truck at faster speeds, for better handling and aerodynamics.

I mean no shocks at all and just run a steel bar from each of the joints . It might be a little too stiff though
