Would they help level out my 02 Silverado if I got a set. I have the original shocks on it still at 92K. What does everyone think, should I get new shocks? The ass end does come around on me when going over some rough rail road tracks. Are the 5100's different from the HD's?:dunno:

I think scott, IncognitoLTZ has them on his truck or on his previous truck.

Everyone I talk to says they make the suspension stiffer but the bumps aren't too bad though. So we'll see

Well I got them for $275 shipped :wookie: they are over $450 retail :eek:

I should have them by Friday or Monday, my truck is going into the shop on Wednesday for Transmission Flush, I will get the local shop do the shocks possibly next week.

How much do you guys think I should be charged for them to install the shocks for me?

Hey Nick, the leveling shocks are for trucks with coil-over front suspension set-ups. You have torsion bars.

:eek:, I got mine in time then, 2008 for $380, that was high retail :eek:

Dealership charged me $184 for install, $40 for alignment. Installed rear shocks myself, simple breeze.
