    It's like driving on a cloud. Wife loves driving the truck when I let her.

    Got mine on a group buy. Rears with 11 leaf expedition springs and airbags. I need the bags when I tow. Truly an amazing smooth ride.

    King or Fox shocks that are properly tuned will ride amazing. Depending on the build, one factory valved shock will work great on one truck, but horrible on another.
