New Shock Report
I got my Bilstein HD's installed last night. They have made a huge difference. The ride is firm and handles much better. I can go over bouncey road sections without a problem now. No more swaying and darting left and right. Thanks to rriddle3 for recommending the HD's over the sports, I don't think I would have liked a more firm ride.
While I was at it, I took the time to level the ride hieght and rotate the tires. Everything feels like it's working together better now, I just need to get new shocks on the rear to match. The rear kinda looks like it's sagging a little after getting the front up where it's supposed to be.
Thanks to everyone for all the helpful info that's available here.

If ur sagging in the rear look into getting a add-a-leaf kit they work well. Plus u can tow a little more.

If I do anything other than new shocks in the rear, that'll probably be it. I thought about making some spring clamps to tighten up the leaf's a little, but it doesn't look like there would be much gained there.

Glad they worked well for you. Be aware that shocks, unless they are air controlled, have nothing to do with ride height which is controlled by the springs.

I've been aware of that. I just don't know if it's sagging enough for me to worry about fixing. As long as the ride and handling are good, I'm good with it.
