Best shock choice?

[KNiel3378]

I have an 02 SRW f350 that has a 6" RC lift on it. The shocks absolutely suck.. Front and back end hop around like there isn't even a shock there. And they are brand new from RC.

What is your guys opinion on the best shock choice?

I tow a 35' gooseneck and a 20' bumper pull quite a bit.

No price range is set but would like options on both the $ and $$$ ends.

I would go with the Icons if it were me.

Bilstein 5100 series...

I'll have Bilstein 5160's on my truck Wednesday. I'll tell you how I like them after some driving.

Okay cool, now another question. Would you up it to 4 shocks in the rear?

Thanks, I was hoping not I think it's Tacky looking.

It is all a mater of your individual preference when it comes to dual shocks. The key if you do it is just to make sure they are valved for it. So essentially the (4) shocks are acting like (2) shocks. If you didn't you would have a bouncy ride!!
