New Shocks, need input
Ok,
Now i don't go off roading, because i have little faith in the suspension components of my truck, and i have dropped my driveshaft twice already. So with that being said,
what shocks should be sufficient for me.
My lift is 2-3 inches, so I will need decent shocks. I currently have a set of rusted Rancho 5 way adjustable shocks that summit doesn't even sell anymore. The RS9000 shocks are 99 each, and i don;t offroad anymore. I was looking at the Pro comp shocks, and the rancho RS17000 self adjusting shocks.
Am i going overkill? Or should i just get the 37 dollar Skyjacker Nitros.
I am asking because i don;t know much about suspension. I need new shocks as well. Too much vibration on the highway.
Also, whats a good steering stabilizer bar? Might as well get that too.
Thanks,
Dan
P.S. I just paid for an alignment two days ago. Will i need to get another alignment after the shocks are replaced?

I just ordered the Rancho RS5000s yesterday before reading this post. I should have paid the extra 15 bucks a shock. THey do look better. But i did the summit search for things below 50 dollars.
But I plan on only keeping my ram for another 3 years, so i didn't want to go overkill. After that i am gonna look for a nice 2001 extended cab 5.2
Switch out all the underhood mods and MABYBE get another lift. I really need an extended cab though.
