After scrolling through many pictures and threads on this forum, I realized that my rear shocks look different from most. I guess the previous owner installed load adjusting rear shocks, because there's a coil spring that surrounds the body. I'll have to clean them off and see what brand.

I thought it was just occasional careless clutch engagements that made the back end want to hop on a slick surface. It is definitely a smoother ride when the bed is loaded down.

I'm pleased with this discovery, as it will be beneficial with the trailers that we tow.

That's what I figured.

I keep going back and forth on installing
ONE OF THESE ONE OF THESE
on my truck.



I think it would look pretty good with the DSG/black theme I have going on.
There are reports, though, of less-than-stellar fitment, so...
