Bilsteins
Paige, I can get Bilsteins.
Do you want me to see what kind of price I can get for you? See if I can save you a couple of dollars.

Paige first check your steering components lay on the ground at the front of the truck have someone move the steering wheel back and forth [slightly] while you look at the tierod ends,idler arm,pitman arm. There shoud not be any up and down movement in the idler arm or pitman arm the tie rod ends should have no up and down movement either. Have you ever replaced any of the parts i mentioned? If not probly would not be a bad idea [check out rock auto on the internet] they have the best prices [except for shocks].

Bilsteins
OK, I'll see what I can do.
2wd or 4wd? And, no suspension kit (lowering/leveling), right?
In addition, I don't believe Advance carries Bilsteins, at least not in every store. Their popular brand is Monroe. I'm not a fan of those.
I do, very highly, recommend Bilsteins. I put them on my truck several years ago and I am extremely pleased with their performance and longevity. I haven't had any problems with them since, and the ride is smooth and comfortable. It also helped a great deal with 'death hop'.
These are the ones I recommend to all my customers, as well.

Bilsteins
Paige, I can get Bilsteins for your truck for $59.95 each.
Shipping for four would be about 12.00.

That's a good discount, I'll have to keep you in mind if I ever get around to replacing my front shocks.
