What do you have as far as shock options for a 2020 Ram 2500 with air ride rear suspension. Not really looking to level it, looking more for a better ride than the stock ones. Also I tow a travel trailer as well. Thanks.

Hi, thank you for reaching out.

Are you looking for front and rear shocks?
Are you stock height now?
Do you off road at all?
Are you mostly concerned about on road ride feel?

Sorry about that, yeah front and back. Yes I’m at stock height now, not sure if I’ll level it or not yet. No off roading, and yes more worried about on road performance along with towing my camper. I know if I go bilstein with the adjustments, I can level my truck later without buying more shocks as well.

You got a few options for shocks that will improve ride and allow for a little bit of front lift to level the truck if you wish

Bilstein 5100's

Eibach Pro Truck shocks

Fox Shocks

The 5100's ride the firmest out of these options. Eibach and Fox are pretty close as far as firmness. personally I think the Fox shocks will ride the best with the stock coil springs up front. The Eibachs ride nice but will really shine when paired with Eibach front coils.

That would be a negative Bilstein adjustable are only available on the 1500.

That is correct.

@Arena30 the adjustable 5100's are only for the 1500's not HDs. BUT they make them a bit longer so if you go with a longer coil you wont have to change the shocks again. The Fox shocks that we highly recommend will also allow for stock height coils OR a taller coil that will level the truck!

Gotcha, thanks fellas. Yeah that’s really what I’m looking for is a shock that if I do want to level my truck later that I don’t have to replace the ones that are on the truck already. Can I get some prices for the fox, the eibach pros and the bilsteins sometime when you get a chance?
