Contact Summitric who has a shop in Sherwood park.
Great deals there.

I just put Bilstein 5100's on my Dmax, what a difference it's made!!! Tightened up the whole feel of the truck.
FWIW the prices in that link are pretty close to what I paid out of the states.

I second that. I just put new shocks on my '06 Duramax in June and went with KYB Monomax on advice from someone who felt they were better for our application. Wished I would have went with the Bilsteins.

I must agree. the Bilstein shock's are the best riding and longest lasting by far. and they ride well with the truck loaded or unloaded

Bought Bilsteins from Essex in Richmond @ $94.00 a shock, thanks Zar for the link.

I have am 2001 and i pull a 31 ft fifth wheel and for the ride improvement and handling improvement i will also go with Bilsteins, they have always seemed to be the best.

used Rancho 9000's on my GMC Dually, they have 9 adjustable settings, run them on 9 with the truck camper and sled trailer on, holding up very well.
For your truck maybe the 5000's would be good enough.
