This depends upon what you like. I did not like the excessive rebound
effect of the stock FC front suspension so I installed a set of custom
front springs from Ken Hand. However, I like a controlled ride and
positive feedback from the road surface (rather than a classic Cadillac
ride) so I also installed Bilstein #B46-0925 shocks front and rear. To me,
this is an almost perfect setup.
The Bilstein B46-0925 application is for Dodge D100-150-250 trucks and
B100-150-200 vans. Some minor modifications to the shocks and rear A-arm
are needed to make them fit.
If you decide to install Ken Hand's springs, you may want to consider also
installing an ADDCO front anti-roll bar to make up for lost roll stiffness
due to the lower spring rate.
