I've got a lifted excursion with duel shocks up front and air bags in the rear. I need new shocks and don't know the pros cons of bilstiensVs. rancho 9000. Can you shed some light?

I just want to tell you that your truck looks great. I can't wait to see it with your new boat in tow.

looks good Leon :D
Remember on that "Edge" kit dealio, you tow on power level 1 or 2, not 5 so the power is a little less...
Your truck will pull that boat just fine stock though, shit I turn my Edge off when I tow :wink:

Hey Frenchie the truck looks great cant wait to do it to mine (same exact truck except I'm goin g w/4.5 Donahoe) but if you do the "Juice" are you worried about your warranty? Ryan

Frenchie, do you plan on leaving the stickers and badges on the truck, or do you plan on removing them. I just got a chevy, and it has similar stickers with the big 4X4 sticker on the rear panel, and the metal badges on the front doors. Just trying to decide what looks best, and what others like as well.
Thanks

Go with the bilsteins. You can get them valved for you Ex. I have the duals on mine and singles on the back. If I remember right the lift shop got them from Donahoe Racing. The ride is great!

I have an '01 2500HD. I took all ot the emblems off. It gives the truck a cleaner look, or at least I think.

That is a clean truck!
ThatÂ’s the look I want!
Where did you have that done and how much was it? ( was it 900?)
Did they give anything for the old rims?
Thanks
