A local shop near me - SoCal Auto Style - ordered them and installed them.  

Hey guys I've been following this thread since I got my 2019 rst back in August of last year and I have been waiting on the bilstein 5100 to come out. Today my mechanic said that he was able to order the 5100s for the front and I should have them installed on fri next week ????????????

Has anyone received the fronts from shock warehouse? Been 2 weeks, no update or response to email.

Ordered mine on July 18th.  They are supposed to be delivered today

Did they send you a tracking number? I can't get a hold of them on chat, phone, or email

 

They arrived today.  No they didn't but I have an account with ups and ups sent the tracking.  They come direct from Bilstein.  If you don't have a ups account, I would sign up since it's free and they automatically send you tracking that's linked with the email.

All,

 

What is a decent price for a shop to charge to install both the fronts and rears, including the alignment?  I am debating with myself about attempting to install myself and just pay for the alignment.

 

Thanks in advance

$300 for front install is what I've been quoted.

No I purchased from shockwarehouse.com.  They were just shipped directly from Bilstein.  I'm assuming there were out of stock at shock warehouse and just sent direct

I see shockwarehouse.com also shows part number 24-293471 and that is the part number that rockauto.com also shows for the 1500.  Any ideas on that?

The 24-309516 are stock trailboss size, so if your wanting to put a 2inch blocks in the rear that is what you need.

if you are keeping the stock rear height you need the 24-293471.

I ordered from Shock Warehouse and had them in a week, no tracking in order email but I called them and they provided it. I did the install last night and it's pretty simle, I've done a few Toyotas and is was much easier than those. One thing to note the bottom mount on the front is much larger so if you have a stock lift spacer it won't fit, I had to redu my 5100 mount after finding that out.

 

I'll report back on ride, I'm simply hoping to get rid of the bouncy front end when towing.

    • Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
    • I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

    • Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
