    My thinking is if they last longer than the paccar ones the cost difference isn’t that extreme… and let’s say a shock goes bad and you don’t notice it, maybe it messes up your tires. Or maybe the better shock extends the life of your tire. Maybe I’ll try these in another 8 months when it’s time. I also think they run a 15% coupon sometimes.

    I have a set on my reefer trailer, a set of cab shocks on my tractor, and a set on my drive axles and they’ve been holding up very well, at a great price point too.

    Yea I just replaced the cab shocks with Fleetpride, was gonna do them on the drives but think I'm gonna give the Bulldogs a shot. 4States pushes that brand.

    The Bulldog shocks are gas charged just like Monroe shocks.

    What you think of them? Have you used them before on your own truck?
     
    Vampire and Axl99 Thank this.

    Yes, I like them, haven’t had any problems with them, and it’s been over a year already.

    I definitely would purchase them again.
     
    Vampire and Iceman1643 Thank this.

    I noticed the ride was a little better than Monroe or Gabriel.
     
    Vampire and Iceman1643 Thank this.
