Getting the Wheeling Fever
Ok getting ready to head off to college and am trying to prepare my truck for being away from my shop for 4 years!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Well at least 90 miles further away... I was looking under my truck the other day(you know dreaming of what could be done next) and noticed that my front right shock had a huge dent in it and was pretty much useless!! Oh well been looking to install new shocks anyway.. or so I tell myself!! Here is my driving style... Mostly highway however I do tow quite often ranging from jetskis to 23' Mastercraft X-30, and of course I am offroad some.

What shocks are recommended??

I like these.Rancho RS9000x 9-way Adjustable Shock Absorber. You can do anything and still like the ride.

Later,
Daniel

I got skyjackers on the way in the kit from Indy. Would have gotten the rancho 9000s though if I had the money

Body Damage is Cool
Well, if you want some extra hands with the controller, or if you will just let me check it out when you get it, so I can see how to do mine, let me know. I am in Dallas area <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
