    Anyone use these Nitro 9000 shocks? I noticed that Wheelers Offroad has them for a pretty nice price. Curious

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    For a few $ more you can get the 5100's. Not saying the 9000 are bad. Just saying with the rep around here...everyone seems to go with the 5100's.

    I don't feel the need to lift the front so I don't need the 5100's. They are great shocks but you have to be careful on this board, people make it seem like you need those or your truck will blow up:D

    You can set the 5100's at stock settings and there is also Bilstein HD's aka OEM replacements.

    Cool thanks man. I'll check out the Bilstein HD's. I was curious if anyone has ran the Nitro 9000's.

    Another alternative is Monroe shocks.
