dual/tripple shock setups, looking for info/pics
Hey guys.
Looking for first hand info and pics on dual and tripple front shock setups. I am thinking about adding the superlift dual kit in the front, with bilsteins, making mine a triple (have a single bilstein with 6" lift kit now).
Any comments on ride quality/stiffness, etc?
I see a LOT of high speed rough roads and most manufacturers recommend the multi shock setups for these conditions. Plus I haul a lot of weight in the truck.
Thanks.
Igor.

The only reason to go to multiple shocks is if you're working a single so hard it's fading. Adding another shock or two requires that the shocks all be valved accordingly or you end up with a really rough ride.
If your present shock isn't getting so hot that it doesn't dampen anymore, leave it alone.
If it is, your best bet is to go with a larger shock, like a Fox 2.0 or Bilstein 7100, and have it valved.
