Bilstein.... that was the other brand I contemplated when I got the Ranchos.

I know I was happy with the OEMs, and would just like to get that back via OEM or Bilsteins. Ranchos aren't the one.

What i mean is, when i replaced the original tb keys with gm green keys and cranked 2", the ride got harsher with oem shocks. So i replaced them with bilstein 5100 and immediately notice the softer ride. I think the Bilstein are softer than the oem shocks.

I bought it from this site.
