Default Bilstein Shocks

I just purchased a set of these shocks, and will install them this weekend! Once I get them on I will let you all know how they do. So if you can hold off a week or so for new shock, you might want to do that.

I am running the 5100 series bilsteins on my 2006. Only thing is, I already had a leveling kit so I have them set at 0 lift. I got them to improve the ride, and the difference is negligible. Bottom line, if your stock shocks are fine, and you are getting them to improve the ride quality - not worth the money. If you are getting them to improve the ride AND lift your front end a couple inches - great purchase.

Best deal I found was at www.topguncustomz.com - customer service was good.
