2WD Shock recommendations

[holderp]

I am looking to replace the shocks on my '03 Sierra 1500 2WD. It has the trailering/handling package with the 255/70 tires an heavy duty shocks(Z85). Any recomendations?

Anybody??

It depends on ride quality you want. The stock shocks are a bit soft. I prefer a bit stiffer ride/better handling. I had Bilstiens on my '96 2wd ECSB. Definitely firmed things up over the stock shocks. I've heard pretty good things about Ranchos and Edlebrock shocks. These are a bit more expensive, but they are adjustable to suit the ride you want. The Bilstiens are not adjustable.

I have the same truck with the same package, and it bounces like a pogo stick! Can't wait to get rid of those flabby shocks.

Autozone has Bilsteins that are firm or soft your choice.

Monroe Reflex are nice also.

I had Rancho RS5000 shocks on my old 98 S10 2wd and they were great!! They were about $40 per shock from o'rielies. I never got around to buying them for my Silverado but i wanted too, at 50,000 miles the front shocks (Z85 also) were getting wussy.

You can't go wrong with Edelbrock or Doetsch Tech shocks. They are the best IMO

i put bilstein's on my 2wd yukon and i love them. you can get 4 for like $220.

I put Monroe Reflex on my 2wd Avalanche and they worked well.
