Hey everyone while balancing my tires the other day I was told I had a slight cupping in the front tires. The front shocks are not leaking. So I had them rotate my tires. (Cooper 275 70R/18E M+S) on original steel rims. With 56000 miles I would like to change my front shocks. I've read a lot on the suspension forum here but its somewhat confusing. My truck is not lifted, or has a leveling kit. I use this truck as a daily go to truck. I don't tow almost at all or go Off road with it. I just want a good set of shocks. I don't want the cheapest nor the most expensive ones, So If you guys have suggestions /recommendation I would appreciate it.
 
I have the stock shocks I took off my 2023 3500 with only ~ 500 miles on them,,,,,, ;)
 
The front cupping is more than likely related to your toe. You can have it aligned to Thuren specs and it should clean it up. As for shocks I have been pleased with my off the shelf Fox 2.0 IFPs.
 
I'd do Bilsteins, and if you want a much smoother ride Thuren 0.5" front springs and their sway bar. I have that on my 3500 right now and the ride is crazy good.

Bilsteins will serve you well . For your applications a bilstein B6 - 4600 shock . bought a pair on line from real truck for 178 , The same shock thru Auto Zone were about 25 a piece more .
 
If those don’t work for you I have a set of 4 that came off a 2023 3500 limited SB. They have like 400 miles on them. See pic for part numbers

If the other ones came out of 2500 4x4 6.7 diesel. It should fit. I'll try them first. If for some reason they don't fit. I'll take the other set also of your hand, so no worries. (the ones in the pix above I have difficulties getting the part number of the last 2 on the right) .
