Just wanted to let you guys know that ORU is currently in the process of changing shock vendors for the GM leveling kits. As many of you know, we've had issues with keeping the Bilstein shocks on the shelf & getting reliable ETA's, so we've decided to have a different vendor manufacture the shocks. The new shocks are built to the exact specs of the Bilsteins, same length, same valving, same build quality. 2500/3500 applications are already on the shelf, 1500's coming soon. NO MORE BACKORDERS!!!!!!!!!!

Is the pricing going to change? Are they still going to be available through bilstein? I am also interested in the color.

They're not red, they're zinc just like the Bilsteins. Pricing is the same.

I got the bilsteins and the rear rides like complete crap. They are so stiff it feels like I hit one bump five times. What do I do to have shock absorbers instead of "shocks."
