I have about 150k miles on my K1500 now and am wondering about the condition that the shock absorbers are in. The ride seems "ok" to me but I do notice it being a little more rough over bumps on the roads around here. It is the Z71 package (1998) and the shocks are Bilstein gas/oil. After reading Bilstein's advertising propaganda it looks like the shocks should last until the end of time, but I doubt it.
Does anyone have any recommendations on when/if I should replace them and if so any particular types of shocks besides the Bilstein ones that came with the Z71 package? Thanks.
