Rides like a different truck with front and rear. Ranchos did not do the job with less than 30k miles.
2016 Chevy Silverado z71 4x4 these fit awesome rides so much better then having the RC leveling kit spacer that goes over the front coil and at the bottom. RC leveling kit had a stiff ride and bad angles. I switched over to these went with the highest setting and achieved the same height as the RC with a much more comfortable ride. I do recommend upgrading to the RC beefier upper control arms or any company. Barely clearing 20x10 wheels with 33x12.5x20 tires (a little trimming and bangin involved).
Q: Purchased these for my 2016 sierra, not a z71. Do I need to buy new springs perch’s for my truck? Answer this question
A: I put these on my 2018 Chevy Silverado and did not need to purchase anything additional. These were a direct fit with the factory set up.

While the ThyssenKrupp Bilstein Company began as a German enterprise, Bilstein shocks are developed and manufactured in Hamilton, Ohio. Bilstein develops and fabricates premium quality monotube shock absorbers directly for automobile manufactures, aftermarket outfits and motorsports applications. The precision and craftsmanship in manufacturing that fueled company growth in Germany were brought straight to the factory in Hamilton, Ohio. The factory includes an engineering department, rigorous shock testing facility and a motorsports track. The track allows the engineers to tweak their designs in response to real world testing during development. The rigorous testing allows for designs to go through a machine simulated life of a shock absorber in all kinds of terrain conditions. The resulting products promise the highest in performance.
