Have a 2006 3500 dodge crew cab dually. Do alot of hauling with it with a gooseneck and some roads around here ride like crap and next one is fine. Just seeing what everyone runs for shocks and what works better?
Fox all day, every day. The smooth body 2.0's are about $500 a set but worth every penny. Just put a set on my brothers 2014 4wd F250 and it was a night and day difference over the stock "Rancho" shocks.
A step up is the 2.0 reservoir shocks....these would benefit on really long trips where the shocks heat up since they run much cooler and maintain their composure better.
I run 2.5 resi's which are overkill for the street but damn do they ride nice. You're probably not looking to spend 2 grand on shocks though. LOL
Yea be nice to have those but not for the price tag lolFox all day, every day. The smooth body 2.0's are about $500 a set but worth every penny. Just put a set on my brothers 2014 4wd F250 and it was a night and day difference over the stock "Rancho" shocks.

I currently have the blue/yellow bilstein on mine now, big difference when I first put them on, but just haven't seemed right since the first winter. One of the fronts actually just blew out within the last couple weeks.Others say they are over rated but I love bilstein. I don't have a 3rd gen but I have had/have the 5100 on two of mine so far.
My dad runs them on his duramax and have several other friends who run them.

I bought the 5100's because that's what everybody said to run and 2 of them didn't make it 5000mi.

I just put a set on my 2nd genLook into the thuren overland shocks.
Great shocks for the money, but I've seen several sets (three different trucks in the last two years) start leaking oil within 10k.
They'll warranty them, but it comes with some fees. I forget the specifics, but I'm pretty sure it was over $100 a service per set.
Maybe they don't like MN winters?
