Honestly...how different is the ride with these? I'v been looking at these as an option for a while but reallly don't want a stiffer rear, especially on the crap roads we have around here.

from riding in others' trucks, it's not bad at all. i lil firmer, but not toss you out of the seat firm.

the handling improvement more than makes up for it!

I personally dont like the ride, but I'm not into suspension for handling reasons, I like straight line fast...lol I can see how they would benefit track racing...

Thanks for the kind words Mike, I actually have a guy in line for these right now...

Did you have to put shock extenders on with these? I just got new shocks and don't want to destroy the shocks

I dont think you HAVE to, I ran them for a little bit without, but I soon after decided to put them in, and it did improve the ride along with cutting the bumpstops...

Did you ever find someone local? Are they Hotchkis 2411 or 2412?

I have a guy in PA... just need to get them off the truck... Sale is pretty much final. Thanks for the interest guys and I apologize for not getting back to everyone that asked about them.
