What brand is everybody using on 3500 trucks? I was a big fan of KYB Monomax on the Suburban, but see they only have them for the rear of my Ram, not the front...odd...The KYB Excel-G and Gabriels are junk IMO, I had the Bilstein 4500's on the Suburban and they were very soft...the only others I see besides OEM are Ranchos?

I swapped out the stock Ford shocks for Bilstein 5100's. Been pleased with them. Have about 50,000 miles on them with the camper and no issues so far.

We like our Bilsteins ... Camper runs about 3100 lbs, wet and camping :) on our Chev 2500HD 4x4 SB.

I installed Bilstein 4600's over the winter, very much improved ride and control over the stock shocks. I wish I would have upgraded earlier.

Rancho RS9000X shocks on my dually.

I wonder if a tuneable shock company like King could set up camper truck shocks tuned for the actual weight vs one size fits all...
