i have seen a pile of threads about the front struts, complaints, replacements and so on... i personally think mine rides great and smooth as can be, but i havent really drivin anything else than a lifted 3/4 ton, is my 08 strut setup different from preivious years, or is it that they just wear out very quickly? ( i only have 6000 miles) if i can get an even better ride than i have now, i would buy set too, your thoughts? and would also would like to here the main reason for the change if you did it.

 

i have an 07 and the ride is terrible i dono if they changed it in 08 i am sure others will join in but i am looking to do the whole change for the better ride just would rather do performance mods right now lol

 

I would wait until your stock struts are worn. If its like the 05-07's, it should be from 20,000-30,000 miles. You will notice it when you hit a bump and are still feeling it 1/4 mile down the road (like a damn boat). Then I would change to the rancho's.

 

They did change the struts in 2008 but I'm sure not to better quality ones, just different ones.

 

I have 24k on mine and my shocks still ride the same...

Some guys have it some dont, I think Erics another that hasnt had problems either.

 

count me as a lucky one. No problems with mine (knock on wood)

 

I'm not saying crap. Two weeks ago I talked about how proud I was that my battery make 96k and then it died last week, lol.

 

43k on mine before i ripped them out. rode factory all the way to 43000

 

That always bites me in the **** too.
