Shock absorbers Bilstein or Monroe

Bilstein Shock absorbers

I have 6112’s on my third gen and the difference is pretty amazing. My brother has 5100s on his third gen and I would say my truck feels a lot more planted and controlled. Both are a massive difference over stock.

Pros: more planted and controlled

I prefer the ride of the 6112/5160 configuration. They are a bit stiffer at first, but once they're broken in, you'll see a huge improvement on and off-road (handles washboards/logging roads, moderate trails, and highway driving beautifully).

Pros: huge improvement on/off-road
Cons: bit stiffer at first

I started out with 5100s and they were definitely an improvement over stock both on and offroad. I noticed a huge difference when I upgraded to icon 2.5 coilovers though, which are closer to the 6112s.

Pros: improvement over stock

All these shocks like Bilsteins, OME, etc are firmer than OEM, no matter what they say. They will limit lean more than OEM, but they will not be more comfortable overall than a set of new OEM shocks.

Pros: limit lean more
Cons: firmer than OEM
