Ordering Bilstein 5100's

[6D9 Matt]

I know most places I have seen, these are backordered until January/February. Just curious who has the best price on these right now, any info would be appreciated.

 

I was hoping some places were having some holiday/new year discounts. Thanks guys!

4WheelParts had best price last week and a $5/per coupon that they accepted. AJ-USA also has a good price, but no coupon that I found.

 

Rears are in stock most places, fronts are constantly out of stock. 4WP quoted me a mid Jan delivery.

somewhat related question

if I order 5100 I wouldn't need a leveling kit ?

[6D9 Matt]

No because they are adjustable. Up to 1.8" for the front, which comes pretty close to level. I dont mind a slight rake.

 

Thanks for the info bdbake01!

Got mine on Amazon, showed up in 4 days (last week). I installed them this weekend and adjusted to one setting below highest, glad I did, any more would have been too much. Nice improvement in ride quality, I'm doing rears soon.

Amazon had the lowest prices (fronts came from one vendor the rears came from another) when I bought a couple weeks ago

whats the part number for them on amazon ?

I ordered from suspension connection mid October....apparently their "connections" are pretty weak, I've only gotten the 2 rear shocks thus far....and they came 1 @ a time.

[6D9 Matt]

I believe the part numbers are:

 

#33-238319

#24-238304

 

Someone confirm this?

[hbrady]

You can double check here

** edit, actually that page isn't much good. My 2014 Silverado took 2 each part # 24-238304. I used the Amazon fit guide (your garage) to confirm my fit.

Looks like these are it:

I got the fronts for $180.48 shipped to my door from 4WP. Well, I hope they get shipped to my door, in Jan!

The 5100 series will not work on a 2015 GMC Denali for a couple of reasons. Mainly, you will lose the Magna Ride feature of the truck (all four shocks have wires in them that the computer controls the ride of the truck). The 24-238304 Ride Height Adjustable, the shaft of the shock is to big in diameter to fit through the hole in the metal/rubber grommet that is in the strut plate. The 33-238319 rear will fit, but it does not have Magna Ride wiring.

I have a set of 24-238304 Ride Height Adjustable and 33-238319 rear sitting in my shop. I just have not returned them to Shock Warehouse and Jack-It.

When I set out to buy them I ordered from 4WP but after a few days, I called and they had no clue when they would be in. Next, I ordered from Suspension Connections because their site said in-stock .... They were not. Next I called Michigan Truck Springs and they confirmed they had them. Ordered, fast shipping, easy. They are a little more pricy but it wasn't worth $25 to not know when they would ship. http://www.truckspring.com/products/Bilstein-5100-Series-(Ride-Height-Adjustable)-Front-Shock-Absorber-GM__24-238304.aspx

 

I like them, they did the job of leveling it. I set it on the top setting and I enjoy that height. Ride is more firm but in a good, responsive way.

 

Here is a pic. Pretty level. I have my old wheels and tires in the bed so it's weighted down a little.
