I Just installed 4 Bilesein 5100 on my 2019 Z71, the ride difference is incredible. Would recommend doing it to anyone. Truck only has 5500km on it, Rancho shocks are best. Didn’t need the leveling kit I had installed when buying it either, that was a waste of 500 bucks that was installed at dealer. Bought the shocks from Essex in BC, Very responsible priced delivered to the door with in days. With the purchase of the shocks and installation, I have about $900 bucks invested.

Did you guys do all 4 shocks or just the rear?

Does anyone know the proper way to test shocks on your truck? I think mine are blown, and the truck only has 3000 km on it. 2019 z71...

I’ve got 3000 km on my 2019 z71, it has a levelling kit in the front and 275 70/18 BFG KO tires. I travel off road to a hunting camp, on a extremely ruff road, the truck drove well new but now it’s all almost hard to drive at 80 to 100km down some of the country type roads, truck is floating all over the place. I think the shocks are gone, maybe hydrolocked or something. I’m just debating taking it to the dealer, or just buying new shocks. I’ve only had the truck 7 weeks......I,d like to hear from people that installed the Bilstien 5100 shocks and what they thought of them.

I too just bought a Z71 LT with 265/65/18, i put the GM level kit in it, but it still seems low with the running boards on it. I'm looking at bigger tires, but we seem kinda limited in sizes. What larger size tires has everyone seen on these 18" rims?
