Time for shocks, one of my front tires feels like it's dribbling down the road with these Skyjacker 8000 nitros.

I'm looking at Bilstein 5100 vs Rancho 9000 adjustables. I've got the typical 2inch leveling kit, but with air bags in the rear which usually have a little air in them. Should I just by two for the front?

I've read Bilsteins aren't too great for towing, but I do like the idea that they are engineered to application. Although Ranchos seem like they could cover several types of driving. Desert offroading, highway, and towing.

I don't mind the stiff ride so long as they can handle bumps on the highway or when towing. I used to have a Duramax and the front bobbed like crazy when towing, it drove me to selling the truck.
