My 88 has a 2" spacer lift, stock coils and leafs with new (~2k miles) Gabriel Ultra shocks.
The front seems ok.. but the back jars over small bumps/ruts/holes.
This truck is my get work in bad weather, take the wife and dog for a ride vehicle. I don't wheel it.
I'd like to be able to go down a dirt road faster than 5 mph without jolting us to pieces. Same for hitting bumps on main roads.
I'm thinking that even the cheapest OEM replacements might be better as the Ultras are just too stiff.
Looking for suggestions based upon experience from others.
Thanks!
