Got some new shocks for the truck! I'd say $266 shipped to my door for a complete set of Bilsteins was a pretty good price.;Sweet driving on smooth roads i don't really notice any difference over the old Monroes, but on ROUGH roads they are a HUGE improvement. still rides like a 3/4 ton truck but it does not sound like the dash is going to fall in your lap or parts of the steering/suspension are going to fall off. so far i am happy with them!

Those are on my wishlist.

Looks like your truck could use some media blasting and a good coat of paint ;Really
I'm wanting to hit mine with dry ice then Por 15 everything.

I've been eyeing those shocks. Glad to hear someone else got em and like em. I surely would be hitting them with a coat of paint and throwing my spare black boots on them though ha.

I have them on the front of my truck....

Love the way they work. I am happy to say mine are blue and bright yellow, just so I will remember what I have when I look under there! Ha

Thanks i'll have to check them out. Most my roads i travel are gravel, dirt, or washed out so even a teenie bit more comfortable would be nice :) I just can't stand the yellow and blue. I'll spray em with undercoating for all i care haha. Any suggestions where to order from?

Erik's place I have accounts so my place won't help you. But try them there like about 75-110 more then they have the mini resivor ones for about 140 more an they ride nice my friend has them an loves them he lives down a 10 mile dirt rode. The silver cans are better offroad though I have to say. But for on road yellow an silver are the same I think pot holes maybe a lil better. My friend owns an offroad shop an I try lots of these off an on when he gets demo sets.
