    Stock Shocks VS Aftermarket

    I’m due for a shock change on my 2500 RAM.

    I was thinking of just going with stock replacements but was wondering if anyone recommends going with an aftermarket like rancho bilstein etc.

    I believe most would recommend the Bilstein 4600’s or 5100’s. @Dude’s Diesel Performance can give you a price quote. @DDP

    I went with Monroe Reflex on my 3500, until I firm my path with lift or leveling.

    Autozone and like 60 per.

    Lifetime warranty and have have had them on my half ton for 306K and counting, two have went south and just returned them to non purchased location (Autozone, nonetheless) and in and out with a new ones and no hassle.

    Great luck Sir!

    I've been running Bilstein shocks for years.

    Currently have the 5160s front and back.

    Other than our winter's killing the finish on them, I'm happy with how they preform.

    I understand that I didn't spend the big $$ on King's or high end shocks.

    '14 RAM LIMITED, 3.3"/1.5" Bilstein 5160s, 37" Toyo OC A/T3, DRD files, 5" tbe with muffler and Twister, and some other things..

    Clayton will take care of you.

    Fox makes a great shock if you want a more budget friendly route then the 5100s are a good value IMO.

    Look at doing the stabilizer while your swapping.

    jus' curious, how much could one expect to pay for fox and whats the warranty, it would be for a 2 inch level kit on my 2010 3500 SWA MC. Also anything else that would be recommended for a two inch leveling kit? Thx.
