    Hi guys,

    My truck has around 75,000 miles on it. I am starting to notice the suspension isn't quite what it used to be. I'm am looking into replacing components.

    My question is; What is the best option for the most comfortable ride? Is staying stock (no lift and oem coils/ packs the winner) or is there a better option?

    Thanks,
    Chuck

    Getting there...
    Go check out the suspension forum. If money is not a question, Icon/King/Fox/Coilover x. With a custom leaf pack and hydro bumps. It'll eat up anything on the road and give you a more responsive ride.

    Any other suggestions? I'd love to smooth out the ride of my truck. It's always been too harsh.

    Some stuff...
    I dunno, my Icon stage 2.5 remote resi front and 2.0 and Dakars in back don't feel any different from stock, but they've only been on the rig for a week. Hopefully they settle in and smooth out! :notsure:

    Compared to what I'm used to, my truck rides on a suspended cloud of titties. They are supple, firm and quite comfy.

    All based on budget really. IMO the stock sport suspension rides great and you could pick up a barely used one for next to nothing here. That would be better than what you currently have. If money is no object.... So many great options.
