Shocks

[hyde]

Guys what shocks have you all found to be the best for the money on the Hoe's?

Bilsteins

 

[hyde]

What models and where did you get them?

Bilstein HDs:

front - f4-be5-6500-h0
rear - f4-be5-6501-h0

 

[blueflamed03]

that'd be the size, all i did was rears, fronts were still good.

 

[vatahoelt]

for the tahoes with the big ass black shocks in the rear, are these a direct replacement? i thought that there was another part that bilstein made that you should order along with the rear shocks?

 

[blueflamed03]

nope, I lowered mine 3" in rear, with shorter springs and shock relocators, these were a direct bolt in place of the big black shocks.

 

[vatahoelt]

that's good to know. i think i remember reading about if you have the premium auto ride, then they suggest ordering a new spring along with the rear shocks.

 

[blueflamed03]

or vise versa, if you repalce to lowering springs, replace shocks to get the full drop.

I got a great deal from DJM on this site on Belltech nitro drop 2 shox. All 4 and couldn't be happier.
