Hey I have decided on the Bilstien shocks for the replacement of the rears on my 06 SCREW, but I don't know which ones. I will either get the 5100 or the 5125. They are both the same price, but I know valving is important. Which one should I go with?? I use my truck mostly for around town, but I do take it up in the mountains hunting a couple times/year. I tow my rock crawler and camp trailer around with it as well.

Thanks for the info.

i just put a set of 5150 blistien (ones with the built on res.) shocks on my truck and it made a world of difference.

 

I have the 5100 and love them as well.

If you are lifted, id say go with the 5150, and it you just are leveled or want leveled, go with the 5100.

 

I also have the 5100's and love em!!

 

i ordered the 5100 leveling shocks and they are on back order for a long long time!! i waited 3 months so far and the guy said 3 to 6 more months!! i am now going with the Rancho quick lift

 

Where in the world did you order them from??

thats insane!! it took 4 days after order to get to me..

 

I'm lifted 6", so I don't need leveliing shocks, just shocks. I may just go with the 5100's.
Thanks

Correct me if I am wrong but if your lifted 6 and add the 5100's you can crank em up 2 inched and get an 8 inch lift in the front and then add the appropriate blocks and/or leafs to level it. I need to shocks too (really mushy over speed bumps, squeak on bumps, and pretty squirly driving) and I'm just gonna go with the 5100's and pull off my level and use the level function of the struts then keep em on for when I lift my truck later...idk about the rears though I'd imagine I could buy a full kit somewhere.

 

i ordered them from Bilstein and they said they are on a nation wide back order!! The sales rep said they have a major problem with production and it wont be resolved for a while!!

 

I know! sucks! I just ordered the Bilstein HD's for my truck. I received the back two in the mail.. waiting on the front two now! I got mine from www.summitracing.com. amazing customer service that's open 24/7. I think I'm going to put on my HD's tomorrow in the back. I'm not much for waiting haha. I chose these b/c I don't have a lift or anything - stock height
