new 08

[fordave]

Hi all.. been reading all the things about the 08’s and I have to say” I love my 08.” F-250, Silver, Screw, short bed, 2wd. Lots of info on this forum. 1st day I had the truck my dad took it for a ride and 6 days later he traded his 00 TD Excursion for a new 08 just like mine. ( Same color, same options). Both trucks are a blast to drive. Information about replacement shocks is the big question now, as all the info seems to stop at 06 for 2wd. (I could just slow down but what fun is that?) 1500 miles so far and couldn't be happier.

welcome !

I cant vouch for the 05+ coil suspension (but damm i wish i had it)...
MOST rave about the bilstein...and i have to say theyre right...

its probably a TOP (of my LIST) mod/improvement...well worth the
money...and it really improved the ride over the factory "rancho" wannabe's.

i bought mine from eShocks.com as have most.
Shockwarehouse.com is another "option" and theyve brought their
prices down to compete w/ eshocks.com.

honestly if youre sticking w/ the stock ride height i think youd be
making a mistake to use anything else but the bilsteins...theres just
too many folks out there that have made the switch to bilsteins and
speak HIGHLY of the upgrade/change !

Glad you found SDD.com!

I agree with Bush, if you're keeping the truck at it's stock ride heigth, then
definantley go with the Bilsteins, you'll be glad you did.
