I used to have Bilstein 7100s on my D2 back in the day. Are those any good? The heim joints wore very quickly but you can replace with rubber bushings easily
These seem to be pretty good. I like how the truck rides with the 7100s and 3 inch RTE. I did have Bill at GBR to valve them aggressively for the weight of the truck.I used to have Bilstein 7100s on my D2 back in the day. Are those any good?

I'm running poly bushes with them. Bill sent out some bushings I didnt care for. I found some online that fit perfect and are two piece. Easily replaced in the field.
