RE: Front Shock Recommendation

True, but Bilsteins do an amazing job without sacrificing the ride quality. Replaced the minimum quality OEM shocks on my ¾ ton 2008 GMC crew cab at 20,000 miles - wish I had done it sooner. It used to skip sideways a little over railroad track crossing etc. With the Bilsteins she stays planted.

You are correct. The Monroe shocks are good. Nick was thinking of some shocks upscale from stock specifications.

Thanks,
