Great shocks, good product line
The ride is incredible, after another brand Rancho 5000 the ride is no where comparable. These are night and day difference. I’ve not tried them off road yet, in the city they are smooth. However, the roads are almost like off roading. The stabilizer seems more responsive too. Hope the stainless steel holds up. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting the best quality, fit, easy of installation, great price point too. ... show more

The Best
I have an 06 Chevy LBZ 3500. Back in 2023 I replaced the stock stabilizer with a Monroe model. I recently had my front end rebuilt with an alignment and had a wobble/vibration in the front end afterwards. This vibration was in the front end before the work, but after the repairs it lessened a lot. I talked to my mechanic and he said he wouldn’t think it would cause that much vibration since the shock still had positive pressure. I decided to go with my gut and order a Bilstein this time around to see if it would fix my issue. After installing, it 100% took care of my issue. These are high, but worth every penny. The quality is unmatched and the steering is crazy smooth now. Don’t buy the cheap stabilizer get this one. No my truck did not pull to the right after installing. ... show more

Great upgrade!!!
My Suburban did not have a steering dampener from the factory, all the mounts were there so this simply bolted in place. It made a huge improvement on the steering confidence. Before the dampener the steering always felt twitchy and jerky especially while going over rough roads. Now it solid and straight. and absolutely no pulling to one side like some review say. I am certain these reviews are from people that may not know how a steering dampener works and they see that the piston is positively charged and immediately think it will make the steering pull the the right. Absolutely not the case, yes it is positively charged with nitrogen to keep fluid foaming to a min but is it absolutely nothing that would cause the steering to pull one way or the other. ... show more

Dropped right in, does NOT pull to the right.
'Completed a 4-wheel brake job on my 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax and noticed that the old and worn steering stabilizer appeared to be an aftermarket item, installed with "U" and "L" brackets. Research revealed that it was in fact, a KYB aftermarket unit. Being that my truck is shod with Bilstein 6100 series shocks on all four corners (which has performed flawlessly), I decided to get this one to complete the set.....without reading the reviews as I usually do. So I was shocked to read the negative reviews "after" installing the unit last night. I did notice that I had to compress the stabilizer about 3 inches to get it to line up with the outboard mounting bracket hole so if that's what y'all mean by a positive charge, I understand now. Fast forward and I'm at work this morning after a short, 8-mile run on the freeway but have noticed no adverse steering effects and certainly no pulling to the right whatsoever. I do notice however, that my steering is now a lot smoother, there's absolutely no steering wobble, the truck tracks like it's on a rail even after hitting those pesky bumps and pot holes on the freeway, AND as a bonus, the Bilstein eliminated some annoying, turning squeaks which I thought was just due to an old, aged suspension(the annoying squeaks, which to my surprise was caused by the old KYB unit!). So I don't understand why it worked as advertised for me and not everyone else?? I really feel for the guys that didn't get the result they were expecting. Bottom line: This Bilstein Steering Stabilizer just dropped right in, was the easiest/fastest upgrade I've done to date, does not pull to the right and absolutely makes my steering feel solid and safer especially at higher, sustained freeway speeds! ... show more

Make sure it fits with your lift setup
Seems to be a great quality product. Unfortunately for my 05 Silverado 2500hd it did not work with the 8” Fabtech lift kit. Buyer beware if you have a lifted truck this might not work. It bolts in on the driver’s side but the passenger side of the shock is a inch too short to bolt in. (21” overall vs what I needed 22”) Unless you fabricate a custom mount on one side it won’t work. 4 stars because the product description didn’t give dimensions of the shock length and eyelets. That should be bare minimum. ... show more

Exactly what my truck needed to steer like new again
My 2003 GMC 2500 had a tendency to “hunt” going down the road, small bumps would disrupt the tracking and the steering felt over boosted and light, had an alignment done but no resolution. My truck still had the original stabilizer on it. the truck only has 80,000 miles. but the stabilizer was shot. the new Bilstein stabilazer resolved all three issues. Installation is straight forward, if you have basics mechanical reasoning and ability it’s a fairly simple job (if your vehicle is subject to salt and rust you’ll want penetrating oil) You’ll need to reuse the anchor end bolt the stabilizer comes with new pivot end nylock nut and washer. Took about an hour to install and you’ll need a pickle fork ball joint tool. Truck now drives like it used to and the steering is a pleasure again. ... show more
