You can't link them from Facebook.
Has to be something like photobucket.

Or check the link in my sig on how to upload from your hard drive.

Hello,

New to the forum and looking for some insight. I'm running an 89 CCLB that one of you guys posted pic of for me (thanks) and wanted to know what shocks you guys have tried. I realize this is a heavy 1 ton truck that was never meant to have soft ride. however i do plan on using mine off-road and would like it to soak up the bumps a little better. I'm not afraid to shell out some cash for something that works, within reason as shocks can get ridiculous. probably could stomach $800-$1000 tops. My current setup is 6" skyjacker softride fronts, zero rate overload spings in the back and ORD shackle flip and ORD extended length schackles and some standard 6" lift hydro shocks. Any help apperciated!

Nothing is really "wrong" just looking to be able to go through the rough stuff a little faster and have it soak up a little better

Its been a while since I was into the 4x4 stuff but from your list of suspension parts ... it seemed fine but perhaps someone will chime in to help or at least add some info.

Thanks picked it up for $3900.00 as is. I have wanted one of these trucks for years, and it is my dream truck in the making

I don't have a truck with a big lift, but my 07 K2500 is leveled so I put 0-3"+ Bilsten 5100 shocks on and they are by FAR the best shocks I have ever had on a vehicle. I am sure you can get them for your application if you would like to try them. Soaks up the washboards in the gravel roads with ease. My buddy gave me crap for spending extra money on them until we went for a ride and he was sold on them.

How do you like the softride springs in the front? Any real noticable different to a normal lift spring?

I really like them, and they definetly have more give than traditional heavy duty 3/4 or 1 ton lift packs. They allow the suspension to cycle more and I think once i find the right shock to go with them the truck will ride awesome

Good to know, was considering this for my CCSB build coming up soon. That is if I don't decide to link it with a kit from ORD.

Still driving mine nearly every day...

Funny thing about this picture (other than the compact car parking) is the stickers from the guys I got it from in the window to the left of the door. I didn't even notice them until I was looking at the photo on my computer a few weeks later.

Love that rig with the camper. Was thinking about doing a lift and tire set up like that, but I think I'm gonna go with srw 19.5's and a 2-3 inch lift.

thanks, It's a 6 inch with 35x12.50x16.5, but you could clear 35's with a four inch. 19.5's would be sick:metal:
