Wich Shocks to buy? Rancho vs Bilstein

Hi Folks! I have to change the shocks. Last time I used Bilstein 5100 in my previous truck 2004 FX4 now I have a 2010 FX4.

The Bilstein where a little to shift I prefer something a little softer but stiffer than OEM. What do you recommend?


Thanks for your help!

I did all four corners with the 5100's also...rides good set at the 2nd notch from the top and gained 1.5 inches of height in the front. Took a good bit of the body roll out when cornering. Firm ride but not rough.
