Torsion Bars turned way up. What are the best shocks? Stock ones are leaking already. NAPA Reflex, Bilstein....?

Bilstein 5100s.

Bilstiens

with your torsion bars cranked, you may need longer shocks if they extend to far none of them will last.

Dead shocks

I kinda figured the bars being turned up killed my stock shocks.
I was leaning towards the Bilstein's already, I just wanted to see what some of you guys thought. Thanks for the input.

Lets see some pics. How much rougher would you say the ride got with them turned up? was it a 2 or 3 inch?

Put a set of bilstein 5100s on my truck last week.

Good deals are out there (buy 3 get 1 free)

I found a better deal after I purchased mine here:

I have the Bilstien 5100's on both my fords and all the shaft seals are leaking already and there going to fail any day.
On the other hand I have the fox 2.0 remote resivor on my 08 GMC and the torsions are turned up, I added a little rebound to the valving and they work like a champ, plus when the seal head goes out its 20 bucks to fix.
My vote goes to Fox
