What shocks with Buckstop?

[GBrzezinski]

Seems that no one wants to sell me shocks for my truck. I've put a Superlift 2" lift in front, 315 tires, Buckstop bumpers front & rear, and I need to haul 3200lbs (short trips only). I ran OEM replacement Bilsteins in my F-350 for years. What are you guys with Buckstops running for shocks? Thanks in advance for input.

I don't have the buckstop but I know that alot of people are running the rancho 9000's for their trucks. . Do you have the problem where your shocks max out?

Are they hauling any weight with them? Did they get the front shocks 2" longer? Nice rig, by the way.

Stockers for me, so far, no problems. Can't tell much, if any difference in the ride. No lift kit or spacers. Didn't move the front end. I occassionally haul a 24ft flat bed trailer with up to 7 round bales on it. No problems with that, and the guy with the hay said the bales are around 900# each. The trailer is guessed for around 1600-1800 maybe.

RS9000X's here with the Buckstops. I don't have a winch and didn't notice any change when I put the bumper on.

Stock shocks still at 14700 miles. My 8x20 enclosed cargo trailer has been up to about 7,000 lbs total with another 1,200 pounds of gear in the bed. No winch. I have spotted the trailer hitched to the front bumper with no issues. It sure is smooth with a decent load.

Thanks for the answers guys. I settled with Doetsch 9000's. Getting set of 4, custom valved to my needs, $270 delivered to my door. I'll let you know how I like them.
