Mark,

Having owned and abused many 4X4's, I have found that the best
overall shock for ride, handling and life is the Trailmaster Gas shock
from Trailmaster Suspension. Another worthy of mention is the
Gabriel, also sold as the Sears GasRider LT. They are slightly less
costly than the TrailMaster and are tuned for uses such as yours
with less emphasis on off-road characteristics.

I'm looking for shock absorber recommendations for a '92, Club Cab,
4WD,
V8, auto, HD suspension. Somewhere in the last 77,000 miles the ride
has
become quite bouncy after any surface irregularity and handling is
sluggish and nonresponsive.

Maybe five percent of my usage is off-road driving, the rest is mostly
highway. Stock wheels and tire size. No plans to lift it or crank up the
torsion bar. I'd like improved on and off road handling but the
off-road
use is not extreme. What have you all tried. What worked, what
didn't?

Mark
