Rear shocks for OEM coils and Thuren front

[Juvenator93]

I just ordered 2" Hemi coils, Overland front shocks and adjustable track bar from Thuren. I wanted to upgrade my front and rear shocks, eliminate the shock extensions, as well as upgrade my coil spacer, and was going to get Overlands all the way around. Thuren advised me to not use their shocks with OEM rear coils. Their shocks are for their soft rate rear coils. So, what would make a good replacement for the OEM HD shocks in the rear as well as be a good combo with Thuren Overlands and coils in the front

For a stock setup on the rear end I'd recommend Fox 2.0's or Bilstein 5100's.

And congrats on the order. You'll definitely love the Thuren products!

Bilstein has shocks specifically designed for the Ram 2500: 24-239462

Hope your KO2's last longer then mine did. I couldn't get 20k out of them on my truck.

So 4600s, 5100s or Fox? I've ran 5100s before. Never 4600s. Would they be better since they are specifically for our trucks?

I'm up to 7k on them so far. Rotate every 3k

Just a guess here, but since Ram now offers Bilstein's as factory parts on the PW and Off Road models they are probably very similar to OEM offerings.

Going to look at 5100s and see what I can find

Well they've offered the 4600 in the PW since 05. But I've never ran 4600s only 5100s
