I just talked to them online, they gave it to me for the same price of $308.44. Great customer service. This is$25 off normal pricing but still the best so far.

Installed the rear 5100's today. Short test ride afterward. Smoothed out some bumps noticibly. This is while it was still on the jacks. Can't wait to install fronts now.

Just had mine put on front/rear.....rides amazing.   Update....the best comparison I can make is that the 5100s ride like factory autoride shocks on my denali....always composed. Several large spee

The rear shocks don't add any height. They are only shocks.   The front shocks accommodate the upper and lower OEM spring pad. The lower spring pad register location is controlled by a snap ring wh

I called.. and yes they have them ready to ship. Coupon code - W052515 saves another $25.00

 

I got all 4 shocks shipped today for 308.44!

I cancelled my order with AJ and got the same deal as GMC-AT, when I called they had 22 Fronts left and 6 Rear's and said they will ship tomorrow. Thanks for the Head's-UP Guys!!

I had a shop quote me $700-800 to put on all 4 King shocks, Cognito UCAs, and front and rear Helwig bars. I didn't think it was too far off, but I ended up doing the whole job myself. It gets harder to do this work for me as I get older and my arthritis sucker punches me afterward. Felt good to do it myself though.

I know what you mean. Did the back Bilstein shocks myself, but let my dealer do the fronts for $300 including the alignment. Well worth it to me. Every time I drive it now, I am amazed at how much better she rides!

I got screwed on the coupon code apparently. It's good for $25 off of $200 but since my order for the fronts already shipped, the rears by themselves don't meat the minimum.

I may try calling to see if they'll apply it, if not I may just wait until I test the fronts. Can anyone who has installed them vouch for, or against, the ride of the rears compared to stock?

I put the rear shocks on first and drove around for a week before getting the fronts installed. Yes, I noticed a big difference in the ride of my 2014 Silverado LTZ DC 2WD. It is much more controlled and has lost the "bubble head" affect as my wife calls it. Smoother and more controlled.

Having them installed Wednesday at 2:30.. Thanks to this forum I got a better price than I first anticipated, I hope its worth $$$ West Virginia is good testing grounds so Ill do a little write-up after.. Thanks Again

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.

      AFM Disabler Question

      Wouldn't swapping out the original AFM/DFM parts for a complete Delete Kit be the best route to go if one could afford to go that route?

      It comes with directions but yes, generally, it's the same.  Also, get you the dipstick stuff to install dipstick so you have one.
