The Benefits of Upgrading Your 2019-2025 Dodge Ram 1500 Shocks & Struts
Your Dodge Ram 1500 shocks and struts serve as the backbone of your ride quality, handling, and suspension system. While your factory-style shocks and struts are fine, and OE-style replacements are available, upgrading your shocks and struts results in improved handling, comfort, and even performance.
Sure, your truck is rugged and looks like it from the factory, but that doesn't mean your ride quality has to feel rugged. Brands like Rough Country offer replacement options that make your ride smoother, and on almost every terrain imaginable. Plus, different shocks and struts may offer more flexibility when it comes to your wheel and tire choices, especially if you plan on getting a lift kit.
Not only do Ram 1500 shocks and struts make your ride more comfortable, but you'll find that many options can improve towing performance, tire life, and, of course, enhance offroad capabilities. Overall, it's easy to see why you should never overlook a set of shocks and struts when building your ideal suspension system.
How to Choose the Best 2019-2025 Dodge Ram 1500 Shocks & Struts
Choosing the right shocks and struts comes down to asking yourself a few questions, with the biggest one being, “Am I going to lift this thing?” If so, you'll want to get the best Dodge Ram 1500 shocks and struts from brands like Rough Country that are designed for lift kits. Premium options are available for leveling kits, lift kits, and much more.
What's more, there's a good chance that you'll need new shocks and struts if you plan on lifting your truck without blocks, anyway. Plus, many brands like Bilstein offer shocks that are capable of dealing with a range of lift, like zero to two inches, which gives you even more flexibility. For this reason, if you want to leave the door open to lift your truck but don't feel like it right now, you may want an option with flexibility compared to an option that's designed for a specific ride height.
Aside from ride height, ride quality and performance are also important. Some of the best Dodge Ram 1500 shocks and struts can handle high speeds, heavy loads, and fast turns, so if you’re all about putting the pedal to the floor, you may want to consider a sturdy suspension.
