The Truck rides like a boat (floaty at higher speeds) and a bit too soft. Of course my 295/60-20 Ridge Grapplers have some to do with this but... I had Bilstein's in the rear on my 2018 and it handled much better. Don't get me wrong the 21 feels more like a Cadillac and bed bounce isn't like the 13 gens but I'd like it to be firmer. Are the shock mounts the same as the 13th gens in the rear ?

Yes the shocks fit the same. Just put Bilstein 5100s on mine (Plat). Hop mostly gone. Rides great. Had the same on my 2018 KR.

Has anyone had any experience with Rancho 9000s front or rear.

Most manufacturers have rear shocks for the 14th Gen available. I just installed bilstein 4600s on the rear of my stock height truck. Very happy. Will install fronts when available
