Nothing special here but to say that I replaced the stock shocks this past weekend with Bilstein Heavy Duty shocks. I really did not know whether or not the old ones were bad other than their age. They were the original ones that were almost 10 years old. Well, after pulling the old ones off, it was easy to see that is was time! Of the four shocks, three of them did not return to their original position after being compressed. They were also much easier to compress than the new ones. The ride drastically changed with the new shocks. Much more comfortable and supportive. The truck definitely takes bumps much better.
I picked all four of the Bilsteins from

I paid around $217 for all four and that was including free shipping and 5% off for just exiting out of the cart! (I wasn't sure about something, so I exited out and a box popped up showing a code for an extra 5%!)
Anyway, just something I thought that I would throw out there.
