I am looking into replacing my shocks. I have 112k on my stockers. Definately time to be replaced. I just wanted to get different opinions from all you guys.

I have Bilsteins all around. They are good shocks. Got mine from Kennedy.

Bilstein seems to be the more less bounce for the buck!
The Supporting Vendors links will list everyone's site that you can get them from

John at DPS, John Kennedy etc.

They all seem to be quire comparable in cost.

I've got the blue and yellow's on my Silverado and just got a set on my wife's Trailblazer. Good shock at a good price, visit the sponsors page, or just go to kennedydiesel.com

I went with Rancho RS9000X. Very happy with them and like the adjustability.

I have Bilsteins in the front and Rancho 9000's in the back. Iregularly pull a 5th wheel so being able to adjust the rears is a nice feature. Both are excellent products.
