I paired these shocks with a 3″ front/ 2″ rear leveling kit and it works very well together. No disappointment with either.
James Moede –
Good replacement for oem shocks.Definitely better than the ones I took off.
Shane Hinson –
Rough country Shocks was easy to install and reasonable price. No jack required for mine. Truck rides much better.
El dibu –
Perfect in Silverado 2015
David H. –
I Love Them They Make The Ride So Comfortable And Matched Perfect With The 3.5 inch Front Struts and 2 inch Rear Spacers I Highly Recommend These
Trogdoor67 –
Replaced my worn rear shocks with these.
Babakooljay –
These are a great buy!
Took about an hour to install. Don’t bother reusing the original rear shock bolts. Buy GM #11611959 for the upper bolts. You just need these bolts for the upper as it’s a welded nut on the frame. For the bottoms 2- 9/16″ x 3″ Grade 8 bolts, 4 washers, 2 lock washers, 2 nuts yellow zinc coated will do just fine. Definitely a superior product compared to stock and you will notice the difference in ride immediately. I couldn’t believe the price for the pair. I actually bought 2 sets. One for my 2008 Silverado and one for my daughter’s boy friend’s 2014 Sierra. Rough Country is definitely the major player for Lift Kits & Truck Accessories. They won me over.
