I put some new Bilstein 4600's on my 19 Tahoe LT. It had about 120k and the ride difference was awesome, much more stable on the highway. Figured I might as well put some on the fronts and it was even better. So if you have over 100k, think about replacing your shocks with Bilsteins or equivalent. One of my rears was leaking and bad. Fronts did not have leakage but I'm sure they were soft. These were fairly simple as they were regular shocks, not magnaride or nivromats.

On my 05, I did front and rear KYB's and new rear springs. Made a big difference but was even better with the Hellwig, front and rear sway bar kits. I could not be happier.
I am sure the Bilstein's will give you years of great handling.

Did you have Air ride? Im thinking of replacing my Air ride Shocks with Regular Billsteins 4600 or 5100. I believe my rear shocks are leaking and the pump has stopped working, Im not sure the air ride shocks and pump are worth the cost to replace them.

I'm considering Bilsteins for my '16 Tahoe LT with a "Premium Suspension Package (Z85)" and have learned the rears have some sort of electronic control. The 4600s are just standard shocks and the 5100 are for adjustable suspensions so I would think maybe the 5100s will be a good replacement (even though I have no intention of adjusting the ride height). Any thoughts? Thanks
