Well my dually doesnt have a lot of miles on it so I thought that it was just the nature of the beast of driving a 450.
Well nope, dump the stock shocks like they always have.
I have always been a fan of Bilstein. This has been my 4th set I have bought including other vehicles. I like the just the HD yellow ones.
Well put some on the dually, wow what a difference.
Stock ones were about gone. When removed you could easily compress them a couple would not return.
They had zero bound and very little rebound. No wonder the truck rode like total crap.

So if you have not changed your shocks out I would even if the truck is new with something that has a bound a rebound to it. The stock ones seem to use rebound to act like bound. Which is theory works but on the truck all it does is keep compressing. Those stock ones sucked.

I put my leveling kit on my 6.7 the other day and noticed my factory shock on the driverside was shot and truck only has 35k miles on it. So I would agree the factory rancho shocks are junk.
