Rear shocks

[Ron46]

Hey guys, my rear suspension has been making loud noises and clunking every time I hit a bump lately, (just the right side). I was looking through a lot of the threads on rear shocks and I was wondering what everyone is running and what every one likes as of now. The threads I looked at were a couple years old and new shocks have been produced since then. I was looking at either blisteins 5100, blistein 5160, or fox shocks. I have 5100s up front already. Thanks!

I have an 06' H3 adventure w/ 67k on it an just leveled and put 35s on it. I went with bilstein 5100s all around and it rides better now than when it was new. I am happy with the 5100s. This is my .02

Are you sure it is a shock and not a broken spring? As for what type. I would go with OEM since they are noted to last a decent time; especially when beating the pee out of the vehicle.

I love my 5100's and the OEM shocks I removed did make it to 110K, but the ride was horrible. I think the OEM shocks were done well before 110K, but the previous owners never replaced them.

I had Bilstein's in my previous trucks, and I really like them. Will definitely get another set to replace the shocks of my Hummer.

If I were to do a 3 again I'd do this again:
