Default after market shocks

Are they worth it?

Will it lift this truck at all?

aftermarket shocks are to replace the worn out factory or previously installed aftermarket units.. they will provide no lift

RoughCountry makes a great shock for the money. They are basically generic Rancho's that are made at the same Gabriel factory. They are almost identical to the Rancho and about 60% of the price.

I bought mine after/before any sales last year, but if you call RC they will match their JCWhitney price which makes them like $35 a piece for the 9000 series.

Hey, when you get what you want at a price you want to pay, life is good.
