Hello, I was hoping to get some input on bilstein shocks. I have been using bilstein 5100 in front and rear (also firestine ride rite airbags in the rear for fifth wheel) for about 2 years. I dont drive the truck much as I only have 27000 miles on a June 2010 purchase. Althogh the ride is nice I am finding that the truck feels bouncy in the front as I drive over minor road imperfections. I dont have a death whabble. I do have a bilstein steering stabilizer. I was wondering if I might get a less of a bounce with the Bilstein 4600HD shocks. I was hoping to to get opinions from anyone who has switched from 5100 to 4600 and what they thought of the ride. My truck is stock and I have the oem michellins with 20" wheels. Thank you in advice as always.

 

I know you might be a bilstien guy, I was also with my last truck (running 5100s). I decided to try the new Skyjacker M95 and havnt looked back. Ive had them on my truck for almost 2 years with zero issues, leaks, or rust and they perform exceptional. I had my truck in the shop today geting some caster cams installed to fix my drivability issues after leveling my truck and when we test drove the truck, the tech at the shop (which sells and installs lift kits for all the big dealers at the rate for several per day and is the Icon, BDS, and Carli authorized dealer) said "I bet you love the Fox 2.0s you have huh? They handle awesome don't they?" I told him that they were not Fox shocks and instead they were the new Skyjacker M95s and he said "wow dude, they feel just like Fox 2.0s". He said he caught a quick glance at them while installing the bushings and because they are roughly the same color he assumed they were Fox.

Highly recommend them and they run about $65 each after instant discount from Autoanything right now. Plus you get a mail in rebate from Skyjacker for even more off.
