I’ve got a simple 2015 ram crew cab 2WD tradesmen with the 3.6… I am past due to replace the struts/shocks and would like to buy some quality units. I don’t have any great desire to raise or lower the vehicle… If it raised a little bit just because of new equipment, I wouldn’t mind.

I also wouldn’t mind a stiffer ride

Do y’all have any brand/model recommendations? I’m not looking to cheap out, although I don’t need gold plated either.

Thanks a bunch!

Billstien seems to be the popular choice. I would also check out KYB.

After 3k miles, I’m unimpressed with the KyB monomax. I don’t hate them, but if I were to do it again, I doubt I’d do KYB. For as bad as my OEM units were, I was expecting to genuinely notice something (smoother or more rigid…I could have embraced either)

Bilstein 5100's are the popular choice as well as 4600's for a street driven RAM. 5100's will definitely give a firmer more planted feel. If you want to swap out those KYB's let me know. KYB isnt a bad brand but its a stock replacement at best. Not an upgrade in anyway
