Got the Bilsteins on tonight....

And it was EASY. Took all of 2 hours, and I didnt even have air tools.

Funny though, the front shocks didnt have the right parts! One shock had 2 of the top nuts and only 1 of the rubber mounting groments, and the other was okay. I made do, the OEM one was in good shape so I used it on the top of the mount since it is dampening for top out. Maybe JK was just messing me ;)

As for the ride, I only have 20 miles on em. I take off on a 2100 mile trip in about 10 days so will get a feel then...

Alli,

They are WAY better than stock. I had them on my '01 2500HD (just sold) from the get go and will put them on my 3500 as soon as it shows up. I could move the stock shocks by hand and they were very jerky. I actually feel that the Bilsteins made the ride a litter firmer but it felt much steadier, expecially with my 5th wheel in tow.
