Product Reviews:

Much better than lift blocks

I highly recommend these struts. The quality is great. I had motofab 2 inch leveling blocks installed before these and I am shocked by the difference in ride quality. I have the bilsteins on the highest lift setting and it's still worlds better than the factory struts with lift blocks. It's advertised as 1.77 in of lift at the highest setting but seems identical to the 2 inch blocks I had before. Very close to level. The ride is definitely a little stiffer than stock but in a good way in my opinion. No more floating around and no more brake dive. Truck feels comfortable and much more controlled.

Nice shocks, gave me the lift I wanted without losing the smooth ride. I recommend these over pucks any day.

Decent purchase, but missing boot spring

I bought these to replace the struts in my truck they work flawlessly but the only downfall was i had to take the boot spring off of my old ones thinking that they had come with it. Not a bad product but just wanted to give you a heads up to make sure you have the spring boot! other than that it 4/5 stars for me

Disappointed with the stiffness of the shocks

While I know these are great shocks and will last. I feel they are to stiff for a 1/2 ton GMC Sierra 4 wheel drive. My fault I should of gone for something softer like a Monroe.

Impressed with the durability and performance

I traded my Rancho 4000 for these per web recos. The stock Ranchos are too harsh for my liking, but I guess they look good. My Silverado 2017 was brand new, barely with a few thousand miles. I just bought this second set at 100M miles, many done in rally quality dirt roads. I'm still amazed they have lasted so long.Special mention must be made to the leveling feature of the front shocks. A simple and reliable mod that adds to the pickup's awesome looks. Just remember to order the 5100's with the leveling feature. I recommend the top notch for maximum height increase.
