Bilstine shocks road test
Just finished with some more testing on my new set of Bilstine shocks. These shocks put the real meaning of "seat of the pants" testing, because that is where you notice the most changes in the seat of your pants. I went to visit some folks on Friday and they live on a dirt road that is private and about 3/4 mile long and not maintained very well the rear shocks wer the Nitro for a 4"lowered 78 and the fronts were Bilstine. the ride was slow and very chopy. On Sunday we went back up to return some tools and the same road that was the most noticable, and the ride was much easier on my back and the seat cushion felt like it had been replaced. The 60 mile highway trip to get to his place was much more smother also. I have been driving this truck (Big 10) for 20+ years and have had many different brands of shocks and these are by far the most noticable and much more confortable
