      Great shocks for the money!

      Arrived well packaged with the dust boots installed. Basic installation instructions for the novice installer. They fit as expected and helped my 1-ton dually feel more like a 3/4-ton. Well worth the money!

      These were better then expected!

      Bought these hoping they would improve the harsh ride that the OEM shocks gave. These shocks are a god send for me as I have a very bad back from the skull to the tail bone. While I typically use Rancho shocks decided to try this brand. Glad I did don't think about it just buy them.

      Excellent shocks

      Had Ranchero shocks for years till once I learned of these Bilstien shocks. What a difference on my 17 F 250. Smooth and super easy to install. Took around 2 hrs.

      Much Better Than. Stock Ranchos

      The ride on the OEM Rancho shocks was extremely rough. My wife is prone to migraines, and couldn’t take riding in my truck for long. I swapped out the rear Ranchos for these, and the ride was much better. I’m very pleased with the Bilstein’s, and will upgrade the front shocks as well.
