Bilstein 5125's

[KG6BWS]

Anyone have any experience with these shocks?? Durability?? Weight handling??

I need new shocks to go with my OME springs but Im going to relocate the shock mounts so Im going to probably need to go the "custom" route. Ive heard good things about Bilstein shocks, but other than the old stockers, i dont have much experience with them. And Ive never had to decide on a shock based on measurements before. Always just asked for a shock for my truck.

Any recommendations for any others?? Want to be able to change the valving if neccesary and am considering resies although not sure yet if my budget will run to that or not.

THanks.

I like mine. They've served me well for the last year and a half. A typical weekend for my truck includes driving way too fast on a beat up and very rutted road to the normal trails. During this "prerunning" action I've never had any problem with them fading on me. My truck always has ~200 lbs of 'ish mounted over/in the bed when doing this. I wouldn't hesitate to put on another set after these call it quits.
