mix shocks brands or all same, tires
Good day to all I recently puchased a "98 Sierra which needs shocks, tires and I think 02 sensors also but tires & shocks are most important at this moment. My question is since I've already bought 2 bilstein shocks which I was told are the best on the market could/should I wait until Bilsteins inventory is restocked in November 3 months backlogged, mix brands or get all the same brand. I'm pulling a heavy built homemade trailer to haul scrap autos. I want to be right in this venture, I've hauled my daughters Mitsubishi stationwagon & I didn't have a problem but doing this 3 to 5 times a week could wear some things out fast. Experienced ideas on which items & direction I should take, thanks in advance CL.

Mix matching brands of shocks is OK as long as the obvious. The front L and R must be the same brand. The rear L and R must be the same brand. But the Front set doesn't have to be the same as the rear set.

Personally I'd go wait for the Bilstine shocks to get back in stock, only cause it seems like you're doing some pretty heavy duty towing with that truck. I have Monroe shocks on my truck, and they're great. Even works good for towing my heavy boat.
