  • Greatly improved ride.
Style: 43181
Most vendors say that this will not work on a 2wd but I took a chance and gave it a shot. I put these on there Saturday and found them to be perfect. My truck has a cap on it so the back always rides lower than the front. This has leveled out the truck. The shocks fit correctly and work very well. Would highly recommend installing these. ... show more

  • Skeptical.....But Satisfied.
Style: 43048
****Original review, update at bottom**** Yes, I was very skeptical being the first one to write a review on this. Actually I was skeptical on having to be the FIRST one to write a review. If you are like me, and are on amazon, the reviews make a heck of a difference in what you purchase and how you make your orders. I took a chance. I figured stock shocks and a prime membership, If I didn't like them after a couple of days, take them off, and send them back. Installation was pretty simple, except for the ability to jam my forearm between the axle and break line trying to break the bolts upside down. Just a note: I'm no mechanic. Jack the frame up and let the leaf springs rest and then disconnect the shocks, and install. Don't be like me, and think you need to compress the shocks to get them in. I did that on one side before the light bulb went off. Put it on jack stands and let the shocks release to full length. Second. The coil isn't that thick....didn't really bother me to much, but the housing that the coil sits on is a very hard plastic. THIS IS WHY 4 STARS. I'm not ready to give it five until I don't think that piece is going to break off. ****Update BELOW***** The stock made the ride a ton smoother, and handled turns, bumps, and highway speeds with no problems. Once satisfied, I asked my brother to hop in the back of the truck and test out the weight capacity. Much improved. I'll definitely not go over manufacturer's recommended weight, but carrying normal weights seemed much less sag. Will Update soon when I determine the longevity of this housing. other than that, If you're looking for something relative cheap and worthwhile, I would recommended this. ****UPDATE 2/2016****** So in this time frame, I've moved apartments twice, and moved into a house. That being said, my pickup truck has seen an above average usage in this time frame. These shocks have been nothing but ample for everything I've used them for. The plastic housing is very suitable and heavy duty for the usage. I would highly recommend these to anyone looking for a great shock for the vehicle, and moving my rating from 4 stars to 5 stars. ... show more

  • Great upgrade
Style: 43180
Great upgrade for my 94 Suburban. The rear end was squatting when towing and honestly while just sitting and the overall ride wasn't great. I installed these hoping it would bring it back level as well as fix the ride issues. First the ride is way better and firmer. No up and down bounce after hitting a bump. These also raised the rear of my truck by maybe 1-2 inches. I'll probably end up replacing my leaf springs as they are kinda flat but that's a seperate issue. Installation was pretty straight forward, 1 bolt at bottom and 2 smaller bolts up top. The upper mount is a little thinner than stock but bolted up just fine. Being as these have springs they are nearly impossible to compress by hand and I had to get creative with a ratchet strap to compress then far enough to get the lower bolt in. Install time was about 1.5 hours including removal/install of wheels, jack stands and actually swapping shocks. I gave 4 stars for now but will update after towing my camper. ... show more

  • 94 K1500 4X4 Love These
Style: 43163
94 K1500 4X4 Stock, no lift, no leveling. Great Shock. Lifted my saggy truck back up at least 1.5", look cool, simple install. Before you screw up your ride with expensive leveling and lift kits, put a pair of these cool shocks on. I recommend taking a ratchet strap and cutting off the strap and then cutting off the hook on the remaining strap. So you just have the ratchet and the strap (no hooks). Then tie the strap back onto the ratchet and bingo you have a hookless strap that you can tighten up the shock with. In my rig it was even easy to install the strap after the shock was attached to the upper bolts. Compress the shock and install the lower bolt, then remove the strap. If you have your truck properly jacked up, you only need to compress 1/2 inch or less. Makes it safer and easier. If you don't know what you're doing, don't do it. Shocks are great, look good, ride good. It's a stiffer ride, but it's on a truck. I love them and the price is very reasonable. ... show more
