Need some advice 'bout shocks.....
I've got KYB's on all 4 corners of my '91.I've dumped the rear Rancho add-a-leafs and had the leave springs re-arched. I'm 29 with 2 bad disks in my lower back and now the ride killing me. Never really noticed the ride before, but getting old sucks and now I'm feeling it. Is there a shock that is slightly softer than the KYB's, but stiffer than Rancho's? I've blown out 2 of the RS9000 series on seperate occasions so those are out.Any and suggustions and opinions(sp?) are appreciated.

I hear you about the KYB's. I had them on my '90 and I may have well simply u-bolted the old shocks in 1 position. There were serious tight!!!
I presently have Bilstein's on my '00 and, although not as bone jarring as the KYB's, they are on the stiff side. I know there's been tons of discussions on shocks and hopefully someone that has experience with other brands will chime in. |
I run Skyjacker.
AWESOME SHOCKS. Lifetime warranty |
the tokico trek master r/t shocks are quite good. much smoother than the bilsteins all around. the bilsteins are definitely better off-road, but the trek masters will be more comfortable for a daily driver. i had both on a '90 xtracab.

Thank you for the replies. I'll be looking into both the Bilsteins and the tokico shocks this weekend.

I've got the Rancho adjustable shocks. I like them compared to the Bilsteins I was running before.

Bilsteins are firmer than stock shocks, this give you better handling but you feel some bumps more.
