What shocks are you guys running on your tow rigs? My 97 C2500 needs new shocks and I am considering my options. It often sees heavy bed loads(construction and parts/scrap hauling) and will be towing my S10 trail rig and trailer.
Most of us really like the Billsteins, but they are pricey. There was a thread on here a while back where serveral other options were discussed, but something like 1/2 the guys seem to run the Billsteins IIRC.
Yup I swaped out my factory shocks for a set of Bilsitens they wer like 260 fer 4...so far I can't complain. SOmeday i do want to add airbags to the rear so i can keep my heavier loads levelwaytogo
I have heard good things about the Rancho 9000s. They have the advantage of having 9 firmness settings so you can stiffen them up for towing and soften them up for daily driving
New Shocks My dually is 2wd and I drive 100% on pavement. I rexcently installed Monroe HD from my buddies Midas shop at about $40 each. I also used these on my Ford dually I owned prior to this one and it was a 4x4 used on the highway. Due to the higher ride height, I did install air bags to level the 4x4 with the gooseneck hooked up.
