Anyone want to guess what's happening this week??

Got the bracket installed this evening. Pretty straight forward after I got the undercarriage crap out of my eye Here are a couple pics. I hope you can see it.





BTW, I had to replace a couple bolts because the OE ones were too short w/ the axle relocation kit so I went to a bolt store and found the bracket I paid $10 for at the dealer sells for something like $1. Needless to say, that was disappointing.

What's the part # on the bilsteins you used? How's the ride with them?

 

[Alex33]

NJ04, I love the ride with the new shocks. Like most say, it's firm without being jarring and it's not sloppy anymore. Here are the PN for the Bilsteins. They updated them recently so your retailer may use the new ones or the old ones. Anyway, here are both:

Old PN -
F4 BE5 E672-H0 - HD Hummer H3 front shock
F4 BE5 E380-H0 - HD Tahoe/Yukon rear shock

New PN -
24-187091 - HD Hummer H3 front shock
24-143806 - HD Tahoe/Yukon rear shock

I see Max is running a shorter version of the Tahoe rear shock. I may give that a try if it will bring me down a hair in the rear.
