Currently running on the stock shocks which have roughly 58K miles on them. I know they are overdue for replacement.

I already have an AutoSpring 2.5 inch leveling kit, so as much as I'd like to get some Bilstein 5100's i don't think its really necessary.

Any recommendations? I replaced the rear shocks recently with Rancho 5000 series mostly because that was what Autozone had in stock at the time.

I've read that basically any shock will be an improvement from the stock shocks but I'd like to hear some opinions.

Also should I look into replacing the coil springs since I'll have suspension taken apart already? Probably going to do a brake pad swap as well.

Thanks

Anyone?

 

I don't have any recommendations for shocks but I would like to see some pics of your set up... i'm thinking about doing the same thing to mine

 

Just placed an order for some Blisteins HD shocks, not the 5100. I'll snap a pic or two when I do the swap.

 

Awesome... can't wait!
