    Because the ride is too stiff (for me for the last 9 years), and the wife and I are tired of lifting ourselves into the truck.
    Having both shoulders recently replaced didn't help either..
    Getting old is a bitch...:eek2:

    I only got them for the lift, I rarely go off-road.
    I'm one of the few who probably should have just installed a spacer lift. :cool:

    Spray in Bed liner, 2-10”subs/400w.amp, tailgate shock, Tinted windows, seat covers, dash cover, CatShield, Fuel D538 20”wheels, Husky custom floor mats, TSC tool chest, leather seat covers. Genuine Cooling systems transmission cooler, scan gauge OBD2
    Ok, makes sense. I have a 2.5 leveling puck in the front and stock in the back. Truck sits level and I'm considering taking off my 20' wheels and going to 18's, my 20's ride kinda crappy and I'm going to be travelling all summer pulling a trailer. Getting old isn't for the timid that's for sure, I'm 59 and getting a partial knee replacement in a couple weeks. So what shocks will you use?

    I think the ride is good. More than adequate if just using on city/highway. Not too squishy. Fair price. I would recommend.
