everyone says that but for the price they really arent bad shocks....I never had any complaints when I was running them (they aint no bilsteins of course). :pokinit:, I even ran a blown pro comp and it did pretty well. I was surprised

I've never run a good shock, so I wouldn't really know the difference. :dunno:

I ran Rancho 9000s on the bdtruck and know have Bilsteins on the front of the bdrunner and the old 9000s on the rear.  I can't wait to get the Bilsteins all the way around.  Smoother and still controlled ride.

i ran the procomp 3000s on the rear of my truck, they were awesome.... of course the shocks it had before were stock, and with 4" of lift, probably didnt do much


@ work, i drive around a tractor, with no shocks and no rear suspension on pavement.... so im not too concerned about the way my truck rides, rather it doesnt bother me too much, any shock is better than no shock

MiniSimp

Just got back from Niagara Rim

Problems:
Truck runs like :pokinit:
Broken Shock (again, and now I know the problem)
Broken Rear Driveshaft
Broken Transfer Case Crossmember

Good trip though! Rock pile is deffinetly extreme!

Tallchevy

Carnage ouch! That shaft is toast! Looks like it's time to build a square tube shaft for the rear since you don't drive it on the street any more.

I had to measure my rears-up-front suspension setup for a buddy of mine, so I thought I would share.
