[QUOTE="kevinatfms, post: 16548266, member: 39344"] The thing with lowering springs is usually they are at the upper end of the factory valving when it comes to spring rate(most bump rate 10-25% over stock). After a while the factory shocks just cannot keep up, even worse when they have mileage on them. An improved set of dampers like the Steeda package usually has matched compression and rebound valving to cope with the increased spring rate of the H&R or Steeda lowering springs. This all translates to better ride, handling and longevity over the factory damper package. Also, the rear sway bar will be a massive improvement in roll control. Its significantly larger than the OE piece even on the Sport model trims. It will get rid of that floating feeling from the back of these style trucks(transverse mounted engine sending power rearward). [/QUOTE]
