Default New Shocks

Anyone know a good shock to put on a silverado 1500 with a torsion bar crank of about 1.5".

I would have to agree with the Bilstein's. Just bought some a few weeks ago and they are much stiffer than the originals.

The Bilstein 5125's are a good shock without tapping into the remote reservoir department. The 5150s' just suck...sorry to anyone with those on their truck I have not had good luck with any of them.
