If you didn't put Bilstines on you missed agreat ride

ocbaud · 02-21-2003, 10:45 PM

bought mikes old Doetsch Tech's.

the ride is LOTS softer and the truck seems to handle better, i really didnt push it though since its wet and raining outside like it has been all day

I need a set of drop shocks also, as soon as I get around to droppin it. Never heard of Bilstines. How much are they? Get em thru Jeggs?

**swervin ervin** · 02-21-2003, 11:43 PM

Good to hear. I was worried about you for a little bit.

They are a good drop shock for sure.

I loved the difference a good set of drop shocks did for my truck up front. I used extenders out back, but I killed the shocks running without the extenders for a day. Oops

Good thing the new ones are waiting to go on...

ocbaud · 02-22-2003, 01:46 AM

Damn. I was so close to getting those shocks.

oc, let me know how good they handle when the weather clears. I'm thinking of buying a set of Doetsch Tech shocks.
