Billstein HD or Kyb Monomax?

[Matt Bachand]

I have a heavy truck, always 9300-10k, and my plow weighs 1000lbs,

I want the best heavy duty shock for the weight. With plow on, i weigh around 10,500 with the 1k plow hangin in the front.


SO.

Should I go with Billstein HD's, or KYB Monomax?

Or are they both the similar?

Or is it a Yellow or Red Preference

Maybe you can Mod the Firestone Level-Rite Air Over Shock System to Work on your Truck?

If Shocks from a '99+ Truck will Fit / Work on your Truck, then that Kit shouldn't be too Hard to make Work.

This sounds like a shock that levels?!?!?

What happens when my plow drops and the weight of the plow is on the ground, making the front end lose 1k lbs?

550 bux. NOt happening

Interesting though.


So, Billstein or KYB Monomax?

OR will they both be fine?

Also states NEW BODY STYLE for the 99's. So seems like they don't want to make these for us old boners.

Too bad too, cuz those look really cool.

Yea, it really is a cool Design.

It's made for Trucks with Plows or anything else Heavy that Hangs off the Front End.

In all Honesty, I didn't notice a Difference at all when I had the Bilsteins on my Truck VS the OEM ones.

So maybe give KYB a shot?

I think I will. They are much cheaper, and I wasn't too unhappy last year with my unknown age/condition shocks that were on there.
