Default Question about SHOCKS.

I'm going to be replacing my shocks in the near future. Can anyone suggest some real good shocks for my 02 Ram 1500 4X4?
Don't hold back, let me hear all about what you think.

I like the bilsteins too, but everything I find is for stock length, or 4"-6" lift kits. I'll have my 2-3" leveling kit on by the end of the month, and the stock shocks bottom out with just the torsion bars leveled. Which bilsteins do you have on your truck? Part numbers would be REALLY helpful. Thanks.

i don't have any yet. They don't make an aftermarket shock for my truck yet. The 2" leveling kit i got, didn't require me to replace the stock shocks.

i just ordered the bilstein hd's for the 2g ram for my fronts (longer so it works with the level) and the bilstein hd's for the rear for a 3g... amazing difference

Rancho 9000s ROCK. they are also adjustable from really soft to really firm and everywhere inbetween. I love them, i would recomend them to anyone.
