i recently put rancho shocks on. well they suck. i'll never buy them again. I can feel every freakin bump in the road. whats a good replacment. something that aint gonna have the ride quality of a wagon.....

 

I personally will most likely be goin with Bilsteins, but Pro Comp makes good shocks as well.

 

You cant really blame the company. It's all about the kind of shocks you buy. Some are stiff, some are loose. I prefer stiff myself for better handling

 

Which rancho's? rs5000's?

 

Yes, which kind? I recently put on a set of the RSX's in the front of my rig. They're stiff, but are softer on the med/large bumps in the road. They ride nicer than the stock ones. Also they make the truck handle better, less body roll.

 

funny, i love my factory ranchos and theyre supposed to be stiff.

 

It would be a good idea to give more details about the SPECIFIC product you're bashing instead of a general company. Please?

 

Bilsteins are the ****...

 

I just put the Level II Bilsteins on my truck and i love them!! so much better over stock

 

bilstien 7100s w00!!!

 

You'd hate riding in my truck...

Rough roads hurt my kidneys....but on the racetrack, it's

 

chris, the ranchos on your truck are not REALLY ranchos, more like ford shocks with a rancho sticker and red boots. same thing for the Level II Bilstiens. ford likes to make deals with the big companies so they can market them to SELL. they are still better than the entry level stockers, but not the same as what you buy from Rancho or Bilstien

 

yeah i got rancho rs 5000. i knew they would be stiff but damn. like john said my kiddnys usually hurt....
