BEST SHOCK 4 the BUCK$$$$

I might add 2" coils to the front to level my truck out w/ a camber kit. What shocks should I use to make my ride comfy and smooth? Anyone like one shock over another??

Rancho RSX is probably the best for the money right now with buy 3 get 1 free. I prefer the adjustability of the RS9000x, though.

Watch out with the variable position shocks like the Edelbroks, Rancho RSX, Sensa-Tracs and Reflex shocks. They are designed to fit on a stock height truck unless specifically made for the exact height you added. The piston is designed to run in a specific 3" or so within the tube. That 3" is valved soft and when you put them on a lifted truck the piston rides in a different spot within the tube. Above and below that 3" area it is valved stiffer so on a lifted truck the shock will be valved stiff.
I love Monroe Sensa-Tracs on a stock truck. I had them on my Jeep then I lifted it 2" with coil spacers and the shocks were very stiff riding.
