Looking to upgrade rear shocks on my air suspension ram. Unlike the front, the shock absorbers are separate from the air springs. So looking for recommendations on improving the ride as it's a little bouncy. I am considering Bilstein 5100s but want to ensure I get the best shock that accounts for the lowering and raising of the air suspension. Any recommendations?
Rear shock recommendations for Ram with factory Air Suspension?

Yup, Bilstein or Fox 2.0. You can't go wrong with either of them.

Bilstien get my vote for on road use.
Answering my old thread. I replaced the factory shocks Eibach:

Eibach was the only manufacturer that didn't say you could use there shocks on an air suspension truck.
The factory shocks were shot after 50k miles as they were too easy to push down and very slow rebound. Ride is much improved that I wish I could easily replace the front shocks in the front air strut assembly.
