I recently installed hydraulic (Doetsch tech) shocks into my 03 F250 crew and what a difference. I had gas (KYB) shocks and driving on the hwys (California uses concrete) was more then a "bumpy" ride (to say the least). Those gas shock were very stiff.

I would highly recommend the Baja Riders from Doetsch Tech to anyone.

I hate to tell you this, but they're pretty much all gas-over-oil now.

The nitrogen charge keeps the oil from foaming.

Now, how MUCH they're charged with, could be anywhere from 20 to 200 psi...
