My truck has 93K on it now and the ride sure is rough on these back roads filled with potholes in PA!! It has the original shocks/struts on it and I started researching my options to try and soften the ride. Certain bumps really throw the truck around on the road and handling is poor. Granted, this truck has the Max trailering package on it which means heavier duty springs so maybe a shock with more "cushion" isn't going to help me much? I only pull an occasional 1 ton load of coal on a trailer with the truck so I am not concerned about payload or towing performance. I would however like to make for a smoother ride if possible. Does anyone have experience with Bilstein, KYB, Monroe, Rancho or the stock AC Delco shocks/struts and can offer their experience? What is the best option for the money or is it the old adage "you get what you pay for"?
