Hi all, I have 53K miles on my 2000 X 4x4 with the original OEM shocks. It bucks pretty good while running down some of the uneven Dallas streets. By bucks I meen pitches fore and aft. I can't really think of a time it didn't ride like this and always just wrote it off to the fact that its just a truck and thats the way I expected it to ride. If I wanted a smooth ride I'd have bought a Lexus! Its not out of control like some have written, darting from side to side and such. It just bucks. I assume the OEM shocks are not the best and was wondering if a new set of good shocks would help the bucking. If so, what's a good brand of shock. Rancho, Bilsteins etc....

When do you change shocks?

I replaced the originals with Edelbrock IAS at 7K miles, 70K miles on truck still working well.
