2500 2WD LWB OEM shock replacemet

What would be the options? I have read that the Bilsteins are the way to go but also read that they make the ride stiffer. The ride is stiff already and Im looking to get a better smoother ride. Thanks for the help

Cant buy Bilsteins here in canada,I use rancho 5000 front and rear. You could put rancho 9000 which are adjustable on the rear. hope this helps.

Why can't you get Bilsteins?? I put Ranchos on my old 1500 Dodge and was very happy with those.

I have the bilstein yellow and blue shocks all around. Big improvement in ride smoothness over the smaller bumps and holes. Larger holes, the trucks springs are still 3/4 ton truck springs. pn #F4BE5C603HO & F4BE5C605HO for the 2wd.

Bilsteins yellow and blue, good shock.

Bilsteins made the ride of my truck much smoother and take out the initial jarring when you do hit something. They ride much better than the Rancho's I tried but don't control the ride as well off-road.
