I'm ready to replace all 4 shocks, I want a heavy duty shock with a comfortable ride, but there are so many to choose from, I plan to buy online, any suggestions

 

I'm in love with my Bilsteins, I would recommend them to everyone. Shockwarehouse treated me great, and good price!

 

thanks for the info, which model # Bilsteins ?

 

Looks like 5100's from the picture.

 

Sorry for the delayed reply... They are the 5100's. The ride from them is fanastic!

 

Set of all four is $500 for the 5100's, is that a good price?

 

I just received a set for $469. from shox.com which is the cheapest I have seen for Bilstein 5100's in stock. That's about $5 less than shockwarehouse with the 5% discount. I am removing the Auto Spring and having these shocks put in this week.

 

Just ordered my 5100's from TopGunCustomz.com, got them for $438 shipped.

 

I agree. Bilsteins from ShockWarehouse FTW!

Although, I have the HD's, not the 5100's.

 

Really!?
I have heard nothing but bad ride quality out of the 5100's! Gla u guys like them, I was debating these till I heard they rode bad.

 

Off topic I know, but I just replaced the Nivomat shocks on my '04 Tahoe with the Bilstein HDs and I love them. Great shock for sure. Shockwarehouse.com is a breeze to work with.

I had the 5100's on my F150 and they are pretty stiff ride but still very nice. I had to lower my tire PSI to make the ride to my liking.

 

What about the Rancho's?!
I had the quicklift on my last truck and I liked the ride.....just the 2" level was more like 1.75".
But the ride was good with the 9000's adjusted right.

 

I had a set of the Rancho quick lift with the 9000's on the rear installed this past weekend and the ride is very nice, I have them set on 3 front and back. I did not measure the actual lift but it looks great. I bought them from truck customizers for $502.00 plus rancho has a $100.00 rebate. I also was debating between the bilstein and rancho and there is a lot of banter back and forth between the two, the deciding factor for me was a lot of comments about how stiff the bilsteins are. In my opinion they are both good shocks, it's just a matter of what you are looking for in the ride, they both have a lifetime warranty. With the help of a mechanic with the proper tools we had the fronts installed in less than an hour.

 

Got the bilstiens on my 03 as well... $240 shipped to my door from TGC.

Rides like a brand new truck. Actually probably better b/c the Fx4 came w/ those cheap rancho's.
