Bilstein Shocks

For those of you who have put Bilsteins on your truck, what version? 5100 or 4600? And why which version.

Our truck is stock (no level or lift kit).

Thanks in advance.

I have Bilsteins. I think they are the 5100 but I'm not sure. My nephew and I ordered them together. He put his on has 06 Dmax and could see a big difference. I put mine on my 08 F250 and could see very little difference, read no difference. I'm glad I have them. They are a much better shock than the OEM.

Third Silverado, third set of Bilsteins. The OEM shocks were the first to go when I bought my trucks. They rebound much better, without pogoing after a dip in the road, etc. Nice and firm. I have the 5100's. I think the other style is for off-road applications, IIRC.
