    I just haven’t been able to get it set up at all. Maybe we can save it for a mod day or something, no rush on it.

    I may need to add rear shocks to my list..
    but I don't have them yet and don't know the ones I want. there are a lot of them out there. and i'm not good at making decisions. so this could take time

    Depends upon lift, how you drive (daily driver vs orr road) , budget, and what you might have planned in the future modifications. Not to mention since we live in the rust hell of the world, what they shock is made of and how to protect it. We can give you a much better option selection, pros and cons, and real world data with this info.

    What are your plans for the truck? Do you want to lift it, do you want to tow, just for looks or just freshening up what you got?

    I had to replace the leaf springs because they where broken and the truck would not pass state inspection
    i replaced the springs with a set of icon xrt set on stage one it lifted the back of the truck by about 1.5 to 2 inches
    i have a cap on the back and plan on making a camper for hiking
    i tow every so often
    i also have a set of air bags (not installed) that i was going to use before i saw the broken springs I may sell these as i dont think ill ever need them

    Sounds like 5100s would be a good option, or some OME struts. Eibach makes some now but they look very similar to 5100s

    I also agree with the 5100's as well. Sometimes simple is the way to go and not over complicate things.

    If you want the 5100s to stay pretty, clear coat them before install. Otherwise great shock for the money

    Aim is still true, although I must say this is the best group I’ve shot in awhile. S&W Shield 9mm, 8 shots at 30’. Slow fire, standing. This morning at an outdoor range.
