orion :: SS Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 ...best shocks for our trucks...a set of bilsteins. please. Then answer to your question, lies within the question itself. [/confucius] ... Can't go wrong with Blistein...good price, VERY well built, and GREAT performance. Go mine off eBay for $259 shipped, or maybe it was $279 shipped...??? - Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hankg42 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I went with Bilstein. It's a major improvement. Part numbers and such are listed in My Garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman31 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I'll vouch for the fact that Hank's truck rides awesome with the Bilsteins on it. I'll probably change mine to Bilsteins somewhere around 50k........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Lamanna Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 i just put bilsteins on my truck. good choice IMO. the shocks Holty has are good as well, i believe the are the IAS edlebrocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hankg42 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 i just put bilsteins on my truck. good choice IMO. the shocks Holty has are good as well, i believe the are the IAS edlebrocks I think Holty's truck is lowered. SS Wrecker would have to check to see if IAS edlebrocks work at stock height. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rausche Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I have heard nothing but good things about the Edelbrocks... Although Billsteins are a tried and true option. It's all up to you in the end though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usabodyguard Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I know Belltech has a really nice NEW shock... called Street PErformance... eric aka beardog works for belltech and he has a set on his truck, he said they are much improved over the old active nitro's... these shocks are on shipment now and should arrive at belltech within the next week...

faceliftedss Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 you could look into a lowering kit that includes them and kill two birds with one stone and save some money if you ever planned on lowering it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
