I am looking at getting new shocks for my truck, and am looking for opinions/recommendations on types and brands.

My truck is a 04 Screw FX4. I am looking for a smooth non jarring ride. The only offroading I do is into the woods during hunting, and ocassionally hauling wood (not very often). 99% of the drive is on the road. I do tow a bit (pop up camper, 2-4 place snowmobile trailer)

So lets here what you reccomend.



Thanks

Jon

 

I'd go with the Bilstiens.

 

Edelbrock IAS or the Bilstiens are a good choice. You can't go wrong either way.

 

A lot of members on here are big on Bilsteins, myself included. They are one of the best shocks, if not thee best shocks on the market. They are one of the most expensive though. You're looking at about $250 give or take for all 4. You could also look at the 5100 series which will be more expensive, but will also level out your front end.

Bilsteins will give you a bit of a stiffer ride. SOme people like this cause it feels more like a truck, other don't. They will be a huge improvement over stock though. I will probably always run Bilsteins on every truck I own.
