You guys helped me with my 2nd gen tacoma, bought 6112's front and 5160's rear with add a leaf, awesome set up, but I had to lower the clip a bit, the pre-load was a bit too much and gave me an extremely rough ride and next to zero downtravel/sag. After lowering it to the 1.2" setting it's perfect. 2" no bueno
I actually agree with this. Got a pair at 2 inches, and it's stiff. I got the second pair for my second tacoma at 1,75, and even that made a difference. Maybe when I have time I'll definitely lower the two inch ones to 1.5 and get a taco lean spacer for a little extra height.
THIS is the video that convinced me to go with the Bilsteins... While I'd always been a Bilstein fan, I have had other brands, and disappointments as well, edelbrock being a MAJOR disappointment... I have run, and currently run Fox 2.0 on my BDS coilover lifted 2002 GMC 2500HD, but was looking for something for my new 2024 Silverado 1500 LT Trail Boss and the factory ranchos just were NOT going to cut it...Bilstein to the rescue, with 6112's up front, and 5100's in the rear, those along with a tire swap, Goodyear Wrangle Duratrac LT-RT completely changed the way the truck drove and rode...it may ride like a truck, but it's not all wishy-washy, and handles like a champ...
At first I thought they were a little stiff on chattery fire roads, but then I realized the faster you drive the smoother things get. I love my 6100/5160 on my Titan Pro-4x.
I decided to go with 6112s and 5160s for my 2021 Silverado 6.2v8 RST Z71. Mainly cuz I’m sure it’s the most versatile suspension choice 😊 I’m excited to hear what shock surplus has to say!
I got 6112 with 5110 for my 20 GMC AT4, and the ride is so much firmer, no more body roll, order thru shock surplus, great customer service, and everything was package perfectly. Took me about 3 hrs to install, with new upper control arms as well, for 1300, it’s not a bad deal
I have the Bilstein 6112s, UCR & 5160s combo on my 21 Trailboss 6.2l. I also have black sumo springs in the rear. I tow my tow hauler and this set up and is perfect and rides good. I did keep stock height in the front and put lowering shackles in the rear. Didn't want to lift it but wanted it leveled. BUT the stock fuel tank sucks for towing, 24 gallon tank.... But i got a 43 gallon tank and makes it towable. If you offroad a lot, get the dirt king lower control arm alignment lock cams.
@@guyknight781 titan fuel tank 7010519. look it up, it fits with modification. Evap bracket needs to be welded to the front part of tank bracket. Roll over breather line on rear of tank need to be switched to return a line. And other return breather line on back side of needs to be capped with 1/2" plug. The fill line is 1 1/2" i believe. Stock on is 1 1/4". With some wd40 and mighty hands it'll squeeze on. However, when filling up the tank it does spit back when full. Out of town 4wd makes a 50 gallon tank in Australia. I message them and they told me to call a ARB dealer to get one. But NO ONE could help me..... I just went for it. It works. Couple thousand miles and no issues. Just the cost of filling it up....
Just when I think I have settled on a setup you guys go and do this! Already purchased my AT4 5100's, upper arms, and deaver mini pack. Time to list the 5100's on marketplace and order some 6112's
Have a 2013 silverado with the 5160s out back. I tow somewhat heavy things with it and they are just amazing. Haven't had the chance to take them off pavement that often but they were a grat buy. Need to get the 6112s for the front, I'm pretty heavy with up front and I feel the dip when I break
@ShockSurplus yeah man I'm going full set up probably with springs and upper control arms. Can I still run those on my model truck with a puck level kit?
Could you install these at the lowest setting to just level the truck and not need a new UCA? I want to level my 2020 sierra 1500 SLT but would like the option to lift it up to 3.5 in in the future. This seems like a good bang for your buck way of doing so, if i'm not wrong.
Yes you could leave it at the lowest setting to not affect the ride height. But even the top setting on these shocks dont require a UCA, so you're in the clear either way.
So, if I wanted to get closer to the 3" on my 2024 rst z-71 I can run the 47-309524 fronts? Great videos! I was planning on Fox again but want to try something less expensive and I have had Bilstein in the past
there's generally no 2" shock like the fox 2.0 or bilstein 5100 or eibach shock that will get you 3" of lift from the coilover alone. If you're just after lift height, you could go 2" on a lifted strut or coilover, then put a +1" strut spacer.
@ShockSurplus Perfect timing on this video. I just purchased the 2024 RST Z71 and will be ordering this kit from you guys. Even though the Bilstein or Icon UCA are not required per your video, should there be any real longevity benefit to adding one? Is one brand better or more reliable then the other?
I have a 2019 Silverado 1500 RST with the Z71 package. Looking for improved suspension performance and maybe a 2" front level. The only off road that this truck sees is the occasional dirt road. I have never really liked the ride quality of the stock Ranchos. They don't seem to control the truck all that well. What shocks would I be most interested in?
These aren't as soft as the Fox, a tad more control. Where these excel over Fox would be in the harder hits, the faster offroad stuff, and overall handling. Fox likely wins on comfort depending who you ask, but these Bilstein win on not needing service like the Fox do.
I’ve been researching for quite some time now and have loved your channel. I currently own a 2017 GMC Sierra Z71 4X4 Regular Cab. I recently got into off roading with it , it’s currently leveled on Ranchos but they suck lol. I feel everything on the road and the truck shakes like crazy. I’ve been looking for something comfortable on road, that isn’t super bouncy, but absorbs the small bumps at normal driving speeds. I daily drive my truck so on road comfortability is a must, but I also have begun off roading. Mostly light trails at slow speeds but I wanted to try getting up faster on some trails, sadly my Ranchos suck and it makes the expirience way less fun. What would you recommend ? Been looking at Eibach Stage 2 and Fox 2.0!
i have a 4runner 2003 v-8 and my bolstering 5100 don’t last like a was expecting… they nose down a lot at breaking… i am look for the 6100 set with control arm at front and heavier rear spring to… any suggestions!( i already have spacer 1-1/2 inch front…
Can someone please tell me what the best overall shock will be for my 2015 Silverado 3500 HD dually, that I tow with almost daily. I can’t seem to find a video on this., all the videos are for 2500 HD’s. Any input is greatly appreciated!
Yes, the 5100 part number 24-309509 works on all Silverado 1500 models www.shocksurplus.com/products/bilstein-b8-5100-monotube-gas-adjustable-shocks-24-309509
I have a 23 Nissan Titan Pro-4x and im wanting to do the 6112/5160's and the bilstien UCA's. I would like a stiffer coil spring with the 6112's, is this suspension setup possible?
I’m looking to upgrade my land cruiser 200 with bilstein shocks. It’s going to be primarily used as a daily/family hauler with occasional off road use. Initially I was thinking of putting 5100s on all 4 corners but now I’m thinking of pairing 6112s with 5100 rears. Interested in your thoughts. Thanks
On pavement both shocks are going to feel nearly identical, the 6112 may provide slightly more support/handling with a lot of extra gear. On the dirt at identical speeds, the 6112 will maintain composure a bit more on those unexpected obstacles. But if you're rarely offroad, i'm guessing its mostly fireroads and easy trails at lower speeds, and in that case, you wont see any real benefit from the 6112. The 5100s will make a big difference from your factory shocks, so i'd go that route. If you find the front end bucking too much from moderate offroad hits, or too sloppy up driveways/highway joints/etc, then the 6112 may be the better choice.
There's a number of options now for the Silverado, depending on budget, easiest option is Bilstein 5100, Eibach pro truck, Fox 2.0 snap ring - our recommendations.
Question; I have a 2019 Silverado Z71 4x4 crew cab and I’m going to switch the rancho shocks for the fox 2.0, do I have to do any other thing beside the switching?
If you like to hit it hard where you go out, these can take it and would be recommended. Not the softest option we've played on, but depending on budget we may have other recommendations. hitup jeff@shocksurplus.com (silverado owner)
I’ve got 60,000 miles on my Bilstein shocks 5100. Can’t wait to upgrade. They are way too stiff for me. Driving a 50-50 split highway and gravel roads/off-road. It’s just too stiff.
we hear ya on that one, these 6112 are a tad more forgiving. Another option would be the Eibach Pro Truck setup, much more comfortable than Bilstein in our opinion for those kind of crappy roads.
I was thinking of a fox 2.5 front with 2.0 rear for an 18 Silverado 1500. It's a daily, I want to get comfort for garbage pothole roads mainly and lift. I've also considered the eibach pro truck. Can someone give me advice there? Thank you!
@@mimickedreality I'd go eibach or fox 2.0 and save the money. If you aren't doing any real wheeling, the 2.5s are a waste. Foxes will be softest and a little worse in corners
the 6112 can take more of a beating offroad than the Eibach coilovers, the Bilstein is just a beefier shock and more damping ability. The eibach will be more comfortable on those rocky trails though at slower speeds, whereas Bilstein needs the speed to feel smoother, if that makes sense. If comfort is your priority and slower going on trails, or comfort for the daily drive, we'd stick with Eibach.
So it sounds like eibachs are still smoother at low speeds? Can we say what low speeds are? Also at these lower speeds I’m assuming the heating isn’t as much an issue either
The eibachs are almost plush. The bilsteins are decidedly firm but compliant when the situation demands more than an initial firm dampened hit. Eibachs will be stiffer but also more compliant than OEM. Bilstein will be stiffer still with a higher threshold before the compliance really begins. I've run tons of 5100s and this is my first 6112 set. They make my 1500 GM feel like a 3/4 ton at slower speeds. But as soon as you get lively, it's still nimble. It starts to smooth out around 40/50mph and then is pretty glassy from there. The 6112s actually take a few miles to warm up in the winter. You get a few miles of ultra shit before they wake up
Sorry I am a rookie. Will the 5100’s add any height to a stock 22 GMC Sierra elevation 5.3l? I was hoping to add a little height or level out the front. If not what would you suggest?

Eibach
Eibach pro truck or Fox 2.0
How do these compare to the Eibach coilovers on this truck? Price is similar, which is the best bang for buck overall?
The Eibach will ride a tad softer in our experience. The 6112 will have more bottom-out protection in the high speed offroad stuff.
How do they perform at the dunes? Not expecting Fox 3.0 but my main routes and trails in forest areas and i have some dunes nearby

Bilsteins are way better longer off road. Eibachs softer but still firm enough.

Sorry I am a rookie. Will the 5100’s add any height to a stock 22 GMC Sierra elevation 5.3l? I was hoping to add a little height or level out the front. If not what would you suggest?
Yes the 5100s will be able to bring up the front of your Sierra 1500. Reach out to us and we can make that happen, support@shocksurplus.com or on IG
i am planning on ordering the 6112 but how do i get them pre-assembled from u guys
We have the pre-assembly options on the site, or you can give us a ring 213-433-3616, or live chat on the site

@shocksurplus tire name?
Mainly fire roads and some towing. 6112s or eibachs?
Eibach!
I have a 6.5” lift by Zone, my rear shocks are gone. What do you recommend to replace them. 2017 Z71 1500.
Some extended length Bilstein 5100, or Fox 2.0, both will be better than the zone kit shocks.
@@ShockSurplus Thank you
Will a 2wd work with this Bilstein set?
Yes they will.

No these wont work on the ZR2, different shock requirement to replace those DSSV
