Shocks

Bigfoots03hd · Nov 30, 2016

I just picked up a Bell Tech 2/4 kit without shocks so now I'm looking at shocks and been reading the forum about shocks. So wanted your thoughts and opinions on what shocks. I know you can run the stock shocks up front but was thinking since I'm doing the rears I'd also do the fronts. I'm leaning towards the QA1 shocks I know their expensive but don't want to sacrifice ride quality especially since my wife drives my truck occasionally. Thanks

Anybody? Need to order shocks just wondering if there's something better then QA1 shocks or something just as good that's not as much money

I just replaced my stock shocks with Bilstein 4600's (1500 2WD).
Got an incredible deal on the set @ autoplicity.com ~285 shipped and can only say - WOW what a difference!
My stockers had still been fine at 33k but the Bilsteins are just superior. Period.
Really sporty and planted but still a very very comfortable ride.
With the Hellwig sway bars (front & rear) I now have a sports car disguised as a truck.

I got QA1s on my truck and they are awesome; I can have it softer than stock to riding like a dump truck; you will not regret the QA1s!

How does the adjustment work on them? Tried to find some info but no luck

they literally have a knob on them with a plus and minus sign on the at the bottom of the shock.

For daily driving purposes it like it at about 4 because it's nice and soft and it I want to have fun I crank it up to 10 or 12 (the have 12 settings)

I'll be honest, I tend to be a cheap ******* but these shocks are worth the money to me :headbang:
