Since it would be relevant to this thread, how much would the 5100 series shock set be for 2014 Silverado LTZ 5.3?

 

 

Bilstein 4600 - $200 for front pair, $340 for complete set delivery to lower 48 included.

Bilstein 5100 - $210 for front pair, $348 for complete set delivery to lower 48 included.

I put the bilstein 5100s on the rear of my 14 High Country with a new 2" block a few weeks ago. Ride is unbelievable compared to stock. Liked it so much I got the adjustable 5100s for my front, remove

Hello, I'm not new to the forum but I just joined and figured I'd contribute to the community.   2016 Silverado 1500 "Z71" removed rancho's and swapped with Bilstein 5100's all around. So after d

I just got done with installing my 6112's on my 2014 GMC Sierra Crew Cab.  Reading some install guides on here really helped, along with printing some Chilton Repair guide torque specs that I got from

Are those vendor prices? Summit has the 5100's for $210 fronts and $350 complete set.

Interesting, they charge $25 more for the 4600 over the 5100, should be the other way around.

 

Anyway, thanks for bringing it to our attention, weve dropped the prices below summit now. Remember we have these in stock and ready to rock vs Summit not shipping til 5/6 & we offer free shipping.

 

Let us know if we can be of any help!

Awesome, that's good to hear! I'm waiting until I have some extra shock money. I know they had one rear and have to order the second and the fronts are on back order.

2$ difference.

It was a bit more before they matched the price... Either way, MRT has a good price and everything's in stock too.

So my truck has 37k now and I'll do the shocks in the next 12-15k. Has anyone ran the 5100 in the rear and 4600 in the front? Reason I'm asking is I have a 2" leveling kit I'm about to install and I read the front 5100 is a tad longer and the 4600 is the stock length. Ride quality of 5100 vs 4600?

I just put the 5100's on the front of my truck on the stock setting and it didn't raise the front any.

Not an issue. 4600 will feel more responsive on smaller bumps and is great for on road (still an upgrade over stock offroad), where as the dampening on the 5100 is more suited toward larger pothole sized obstacles.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      Thanks, so being a different beast altogether, anyone know what the "optimal" temp is for the 10L80/90 for proper shifting?

      How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that?

      Future GMC Jimmy

      What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way to big should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crosing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...

      Silverado 4500-5500-6500 are they still being produced? Would have sold better as GMCs as well
