I was wondering what kind of shocks to replace my Ground Force ones with. I have a RST and I don't really like the ride I get. I also have the stock Goodyear Eagle GTII 275/45R20s still on too. Maybe all I need to do is switch tires? Any suggestion on what other brands in the same size to get and shocks to try?

 

WOW!!! Anybody want to comment?

 

hmm, you at stock height, lowered, or what?

 

I think the Recency's are lowered 2/4 from the factory. I think the best options for that height are Doetsch Tech, Belltech Nitro Active, or Edelbrock IAS. That's from cheapest to most expensive.

 

i love my doetsch techs heard good things about the IAS's as well.

 

if you dont like the ground forces, dont get the bell techs. not a good ride. i have also heard great things about doetsch techs. they are cheaper than edelbrocks also. thats a selling point to me.

 

I dont have any problems with the nitro-actives.

 

but you have extended cab, the regular cabs a little lighter and bouncier. they need a softer shock to keep it on the ground.

 

i put some new tires on mine and it helped out some the tires that came with it basically sucked IMO no grip plus a basic tread pattern didnt look right with the rest of the truck
