I have a 2004 GS Sunvoyager. Thinking about installing Bilstein shocks for a better ride. Has anybody changed to these shocks ?

We have a 2001 Alpine, which came with Bilsteins. When they got old, we put on Koni's and have been very satisfied with them. Don't know whether your rig has air bags; if so, adding "motion control" from Henderson's Line Up will reduce "porpoising".

I would install konis instead. They may be more expensive, but they work much better and will last longer.
