Bilstein 5100s are a HUGE upgrade!

[Grall]

Just purchased a rear set for my TB. Part # 24-309516.

So sick of the truck kicking out on studder bumps, railroad tracks...

Looks Like Bilstein just came out with a complete front shock set up for the Silverado. Two front shocks includes springs. Adjustable up to 2.5 height. No price yet. To new

Yeah, curious about this. I asked a bigger shop close to me for a quote a while back and it was almost $1K for fronts & tears installed.

Holy chit!!! I was thinking no more than about $300 for the front plus whatever for the alignment....figured it shouldnt take a shop no more than a couple hrs

If they quoted $1000 they are ripping you off unless you were getting other work done as well.

It was $310 for install of the fronts and alignment. I also had them put on UCA too. $1,000 is insane.

I paid $225 to have the front and rear shocks installed and an alignment.

That’s quite cheap. Where? A small, local shop?

No I do not. Not sure what I would take pictures of.

Yeah I just googled the part number and zip. I’m guessing they will be around $400 for the pair...it’s too bad cause I just ordered my fronts and rears last night for the TB.

 

maybe the place I ordered them will back stock me and I can cancel it and wait til those come out.

Yeah they have a larger shock body the the 5100 fronts. Agree should be around 400 to 500 dollars.  Same as the Eiback front setup. I'm going to wait for then also. Leave my RC fronts for now. My rear 5100 will here this week.
