What are your opinions on shocks?
Mine are about done, so what do you guys recommend? I'm going to be going a front end lift rear level, kit and don't do off roaring or anything so a nice smooth ride would be perfect.
Thanks,
Trevor.

I recently changed the fronts and rears on my 2007 with Monroe Quick-struts in the front (comes with springs); no front lift, and a set of Monroe Sensa-Trac load adjusting shocks for the rear. The rears have an outer spring as well, and are great for towing or hauling weight in the bed. No harsh ride, and really brought the truck back to "new truck" handling.

Rancho 9000 front and rear. Fronts provided a little over 2" of lift.
Love how easy it is to adjust dampening.
I also hear Bilsteins are excellent. Know them well from using on my wife's cars.

You don’t make sense... front end lift...rear end level ?? You can not lift the rear with shocks... if you level the front then lift the rear your truck is no longer level.

I second (or third) the Bilstein 5100s. Adjustable fronts allow you to set the spring seat height, which levels out the truck in top position. I've got a few hundred miles on mine, and they do a great job of dampening the actual shock absorbers, aka springs
