Thanks, I'll order mine up soon as I have 105,000 on mine now. I just hope if I spend this much, the truck will ride smoother. It likes to jump a alittle over bumps now.

RockAuto to the rescue. Auto Anything has been officially deleted from my bookmarks bar. Can't wait to get these things in and see the difference in ride and handling... AND get my rebate!

Well today I had some extra time so I decided to see how bad my shocks were after 105,00 miles. So I took one front shock off and one rear shock off to see how bad they were and I was surprised. None of them were leaking, both of shocks I took off seemed good. They sprang apart real quick and they compressed in using some effort. I am really wondering if I should change them out. The ride is getting rough, I'm just wondering if the new ones will be better.

the gas charge can still be good but the dampers and valves inside can be shot which makes for the roughness
