  1. Ok, here we go guys and gals I'm been a 2500 guy for 30 years and have always ran stock Bilstein's on my trucks. This is the first 1500 I've had in an extremely long time and as such have a few questions. Oh, it's a 2020 1500 RST CC Z71 with the 5.3 standard box. I love the truck especially the ride, quite the difference between the 15's and 25's in ride Anyways, first off the Rancho's sux. I already have 20k on the truck and I'm looking for shocks. I'm looking at the 5100's as that is what I've always ran on my 2500's. I don't care about it being lifted or leveled, ok, maybe a little on level. What I care about is hauling and towing as after all it's a truck. I'm thinking of going with the rears set at zero and the fronts maybe an inch, but not much more. That way it looks a little more level. But my main concern is the rears as I'm almost always hauling something in the bed or towing. I tow a 7 x 16 enclosed snowmobile trailer, 2 place pwc trailer, 2 place snowmobile trailer and dump trailer. Depending on the what I'm towing or hauling the back sags, not what I'm use to with having 2500's. I'm thinking of getting a set of air bags also. But the first order of business is the shocks. Would 5100's the Bilstein B6 24-293471 be best for the rears and the Bilstein B8 5100 24-293297 for the fronts? Does anyone think the rears should go up a inch and maybe the fronts 2? Also, what airbags works best for towing and hauling. Thanks in advance for the help Oh, I plan on running the stock tire size once the factory ones wear out, if that makes a difference.
  2. Just went out and looked all over again. It's not the plastic trim piece behind the door grab handles. That part is curved, this one is flat. Thanks for the help so far.
  3. I've hunted all over my truck to see where this goes. Son found it on the floor while using my truck one day. It has a number of 15298138 stamped om it. Did a search of the number and came up empty. The truck is a 2010 HD2500 with a center console if that matters. I put it this forum as I though it would get more hits. If needed to be more to the HD forum so be it. Thanks in advance
