4600

[MerkelG]

Installed 4600 bilsteins on my 2015 2500. Better than stock. Still pretty stiff ride. Had rancho adjustables on my 06 much better ride. Pain to replace.

Blister's give a firm controlled ride.

Contemplating changing out the fronts on my 15 Dually. The front shocks are Nitrogen US Made. I think the Bilstien's would improve the front. Anyone changed their front shocks to Bilstien's on a 13 and newer 3500?

Put bilsteins on the front of my 2015 3500 SRW about a month ago. Much better ride control then the factory shocks. Would have changed the rear shocks as well but they aren't available for the supplemental air ride suspension yet.

Thanks for the reply!

One question were the shocks you removed Made in USA and Nitrogen filled? Reason I ask is I wonder if they install different shocks on the LongHorn and I don't see what model your 3500 is.

When I hit a bump in the road it feels like it reverberates for a bit. My 11's front rode much better with the Bilstien's than this new 3500 Dually's front does.

 

[EHoxie]

Yes the ones I took off were made in USA and nitrogen filled. Part # 56366-G stamped on the body of the shock. The Bilsteins were like a night and day difference from the factory shocks.

The Bilstein's made a huge difference on my 11 Dually. What is the part number and where did you get the Bilsteins. Geno's only say up to 2014.

I was told the '14 Bilstein's will work on our trucks but, I don't think it was Geno's.....just can't remember whom.

 

[EHoxie]

I got mine from Genos. The 2015 is the same as the 13 and 14

 

[EHoxie]

The rear shocks on the 15 with supplemental air are different and Bilstein doesn't have a replacement yet.

 

[Cummins12V98]

Thanks! Really weird Geno's has not changed their application to include the 15 trucks. I will be calling in an order tomorrow for a few things including front shocks.

So far I am ok with the rear ride but as soon as Bilstein's come out with a rear shock for the rear air ride I will get them.

HI. Did you install the 4600 or 5100 series?

 

[Cummins12V98]

4600's are for stock applications. The 5100's are for lifted and off road applications.

I installed the 4600's on my 11 Dually and they really made a big difference. I was hoping since the shocks on my 15 are US Made and Nitrogen they would be fine but so far not impressed compared to my 11 but I also know the 15 front suspension puts the 11's to shame, much heavier duty.

 

[HorseMan-AR]

Are the 4600s available yet - for the rear of a 3500 SRW with OEM adjustable air ride? What's the part number for the front? Just wanting to confirm before I purchase.

Thanks!

 

[Cummins12V98]

No rears yet. Order from genos.com their site says 13-14 but they do fit 15, I have a set in my garage waiting to be replaced.

I was just thinking today that my '15 dually tends to bounce an awful lot in the front end when going over decent sized bumps.... almost like I have 70k miles on the truck, when I only have 2,300.

 

[HorseMan-AR]

Still no 4600's for the rear with factory air for 3500? Any idea when we might see them?

Change out to the 4600's. Also run 40psi rear solo.

I just ordered a full set of 4600's from 4 Wheel Parts. $251 delivered which I thought seemed pretty dang reasonable. Hoping they will be here before I leave for Tennessee with the fiver on Tuesday.

Let us know what you think! I may go ahead and order a set for the front and wait on the rear.
