Bilstein's installed

[csutton7]

the Bilstein's that have been sitting in my office for a few months finally made their way onto the ol' truck yesterday with the help of Brandon and Brandon--took us all day to fab some new brackets and some torching and welding on the stock shock tower to make it all happen----thanks guys----the ride is awesome, the truck stays stuck to the ground---true test will come on the first sled pull to see if it will help the dreaded "skip to my lou" I was getting---but even if it doesn't help there, it has improved the ride quality trememdously----and as Brandon and Brandon and Rubberneck said more than once---"dems some nice pieces, dey look cool"..... thanks guys for you help... ... chris

csutton7 Do you have any pics. of the install? Do the shocks have the external res. ? What type of configuration are you runnin ie. double shock in front single rear?

I have been considering doing double front single real with Fow or Sway-A-Way shocks.

Thanks

Matt

no pics yet---didn't get the reservoir shocks--2 in the rear and 2 in the front----it's fairly easy to add duals in the rear-just get some long bolts(I don't remember if they were 5" long or 6" long) and washers and put the bolts thru the existing mounts and you're in business... . chris
