Shocks?

The dodge is in need of new shocks and I was wondering if anyone has a recomendation on which brand, I have look at Rancho, KYB, Superlift, etc. If so which ones did you get (twin tube, tripple tube, mono tube).

Thanks

From past experience the Rancho, rough country, super lift and a few others are all the same shock except the sticker you get to put on it. I like my nitrogen, but they are a little stiffer, I'd like to try some Bilstein Shock though.

I have the billstien 7100s, 10 times better than stock, but a little harsh on the first edge of a bump till the valving takes over. They have more of a sport feel to them than what a fox or king shock would.

If you check out the CF suspension forum you can find detailed accounts of what people are running.

I love my fox remote res's. With an 8 inch and 35s on 20x12s on a megacab. She rides better than stock.
