Shock absorbers well installed if you've ever done it before. The truck drives much better on city streets. I haven't ridden that much on the road, but the short freeway ride feels smooth too. Bought for riding on regular roads, not off-road. You can check the front rebound/rebound stoppers as mine were cracked. Riding a bit also helped. Happy with the purchase, time will tell. The price was higher than some others I looked at. The Rancho 5000 was perhaps a tougher road ride than what I asked a mechanic friend to do.
