: Yet Another Bilstein Testimonial

after owning these since mid december of last year, I finally found a little bit of free time to install them.


Worth every penny I spent on them. The change in handling and road feel is incredible. Even the real test, a set of railroad tracks that the city fixed with a caution bump 30mph sign was phenomonal.


A must buy in my book. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Thumbs Up.gif


The wife will be getting a set for her Trailblazer real soon.

Rick, I must also agree with you. It really was one of the most noticeable improvements I ever made to the truck. You really just don't know what a difference it makes until you put them on.

Victory Red,
Have to disagree! The REAL TEST is running some errands with the wife in the truck. About half hour after we get home she says "what did you do to your truck?" I give her a "who me?" She says the ride is actually pleasant and doesn't make her sick anymore.(extremely motion sensative) Thanks to Bilstein and dropping the overload leaf. THE BOSS HAS SPOKEN, NUFF SAID. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

P.S. Stocks were total junk at 4500 mi.

So anyone know where I can get a set of these for my wife's 03 Trailblazer? These shocks are just the bomb, wish I had done it sooner.


YZF1R, thanks for the kudos. I will be at John's next GTG over labor day so I hope to meet some of you people and put some faces to these names.

VR,


I am planning on being there at JK's as well. Are you going to have some straps on hand for sale? I need a good replacement for the POS stockers. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif


Thanks,


Brandon

Right now CAMPING WORLD has a deal....buy three get one free. Shipping is $1.00. The ones for our trucks are $71.99. Their website doesn't show the sale, but if you call them and say you saw it in their August mailer (where the ad is listed) you get the deal.

Brandon,


More than likely I'll have a few sets on hand depending on stock levels at that point. I'll try to remember to reserve a set for you.

Got mine from JK last month and put'em on after the green keys and 2" lift. Damn they're fine. Enough said too.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif
