Wouldn't the 4600 have a little smoother, softer ride?

Yes it was. That was partly why I was going with it again. Do you think there is any brand as good or better than Bilstein?

Those are good shocks Jim. My dad put the non-adjustable 5100's on his 2500 Cummins and really likes them.

Bilstein is hard to beat for the money. Its a quality product. Supposedly they offer a lifetime warranty too. Never tried to use it tho
