   Perfect for my lift leveled Avalanche!, July 2, 2014

   These shocks exceed expectations in every way.

   After I «cranked» the stock torsion keys up to their limits to level my 2005 Avalache 2wd, the stock height shocks I had on the vehicle did not have enough height to allow the front suspension to move through its full range of motion; causing a very choppy ride over bumps and off camber parts of roads when the now too short shocks were working against the torsion bars.

   These Bilsteins solved that problem, and then some! My truck corners flatter, dips the nose less under braking, and rides smoother than it ever did with any brand of shock I’ve had on before.»(AC Delco, Gaberial, Monroe).

   Even if you haven’t lifted your vehicle, Bilstein rates these for vehicles ranging from stock height up to 3 inches of lift, so don’t sweat it. Just buy these shocks if you want a comfortable ride from your truck again.

   One thing to note, these shocks with my coil sprung rear end seem to squat slightly more and dip more over the rough stuff when towing. If you’re maxing out your tow rating regularly you might want a heavier duty option.

   2006 Silverado 4×4 Rides Like New, September 30, 2014

   I wasn’t sure if I would be able to notice a difference when I put these on but wow! I have a 2006 Silverado 4×4 and it really improved ride quality.The shocks I had on before were stock and my truck has 120k miles so I figured it was time to replace them even though they were still in ok quality. These Bilsteins made the ride much smoother and did wonders for the handling. The truck doesn’t have nearly as much body roll on cornering which I love and compared to these I’m pretty sure my old shocks were potatoes. I can’t wait to go off road with these.

   I have «cranked» my 05 tahoe 2 3/4 inches in the front. With these awesome shocks you don’t not need shock extenders, they ride great. They make going over railroad tracks feel like a small pothole. Great for the price NOT SOLD IN PAIRS highly recommend
