Just ordered Bilsteins, OE ones were leaking and riding like crap, too loose. Anyway glad to hear everyone loves them, ordered from shock warehouse "in stock" for the 06-08. Happy Happy Joy Joy!

Just installed Rancho RS5000's seem to make the truck a lot more predictable and no more squashy feeling just have to see if they are better for towing!

Just installed bielsteins, all I can say is WOW! huge difference, truck drives like new. I guess I had no idea how many issues were related to those crappy leaking OEM shocks! Definitly worth the $$

I'm looking at the Bilstein 5100 for my 07 Ram 1500. I'm starting to hear my front left shock make a rattle noise making me think it's shot. (plus i hear it's common around 50,000 miles.
A side question though - if I got the leveling struts from Bilstein, can I do a body lift as well?

Anyone have an actual ride comparison on the Rancho RS5000 vs Bilsteins? Set of 4 Bilstein only about $40 more for the set. But, dam they are ugly lol
