Hello all. It's been a while. Hope all is good with everyone.

 

2001 Silverado Extended Cab Z71 5.3.

 

Torsion keys cranked many years ago to level the truck.

 

I have 203,000 miles on the original shocks and are wanting to finally replace 'em.

 

I'm sure this has been discussed many times, I am looking for peoples experiences with brands, likes and dislikes of any aftermarket shocks that have been used.

 

Best place to purchase shocks.

 

Thanks in advance.

I just put KYB monomax's on my crewcab. A bit stiff but great off road and over big bumps.

I run Bilsteins on my 01. Rockauto has them for about 80 bucks each. They have been on for about 150,000 miles and are holding up very well. They did make the truck ride a little rougher than the stock shocks.

don't cheap out, buy the bilstiens! I got 5100s with the extra 2" in the front for the big keys and they made a ridiculous amount of difference, bit over kill but they haul ass on the dirt and seem to handle the dreaded cranked torsion keys and what not

Why the 4600's over the 5100's?

Personal preference.

I just don't want anything with a 'boot'.
