I have a 2006 Silverado crew 4wd with 160k on it. Dealer installed a Trailmaster 6" lift kit when it was brand new. Fast forward to today and some things need to be addressed. It has a bit of a rake since it has a 4" block in the rear. I want it level and was looking at some Deaver springs to replace the current ones, but then I started thinking about shocks that have 160k on them. Maybe its time for new shocks too? What shocks should I get? I had Bilstein 5100's on my 2015 and love them, but it wasn't lifted so I don't know if those are available with a 6" lift? I think the ball joints need replacing too. So is it worth changing the springs and shocks or should I just get a whole new kit?

If anyone's interested in a good deal, I have my set of 5100's for sale right now. 3700mi on them. Took off because GM is repurchasing the truck and I had to put it back to stock. Have my Toyo AT2's (same miles) also up for sale. Was a GREAT combo. At highest position, the shocks + 33" tire put me at 39" fender height. Stock was 36" (with 50k on original tires). -

Does anyone know if the same 5100's that fit the 14-up trucks will fit the 04-07 body style too? -

I hadn't seen every post, but weren't they just being helpful and answering questions? I didn't see any advertising from them. -

Anyone know about the end links? This knock sound is getting annoying -

One thing I did notice was a little bit of a clunk when going over driveways/speed bumps. I'm having the shop double check everything is tightened properly. I have faith in them but just want to be sure. It looks like it may be the end links. At a full 2" increase there is a tiny gap at the bushing. Anyone else run into this? Should I get new end links? -

Amazon. $350 shipped. Best price I'd seen anywhere. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T369HRY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T367RUS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I just got mine installed yesterday and am liking them. Went with the max height and got a full 2" from it. Rides more stiff, for sure, but I don't mind. The bumps and bounces are way reduced, it feels planted and solid. Not floaty anymore. -

Just got my 5100's in today. Thinking about doing the rears tonight before heading home. Anyone know the tq specs for the rear shock bolts? -

Anyone done a rear set of these? Like mounted at the corners of the bed, behind the glass?
