Lets see your rake...

Looking for pics of 4th gens with Bilsteins. Trying to get an idea of where I wanna set mine for the install next week. How much rake will the notch 1 down from the top give?

Which one do you want to see as I have several. I have a plastic rake, a metal stiff tine rake, an aluminum light weight rake, dethatching rake........ sorry I couldnt resist making a joke.....

I must be confused. Shocks dont set ride height and are not designed to. Now way back in the day when I got my first car in the states I used air shocks to raise the back of my car, though the mounting bolts really didnt like it as they wernt designed to support a load.

Bilstein 5100's are adjustable up to like 2.5 inches. Thus, allowing you to level your truck with ease and improving the ride quality at the same time.

I installed mine at the 2.1 notch which is the notch down from the top you can check it out on the lifted thread if you wanna take a look

Adhustable struts are though. They have a retainer ring that allows you to change the height of the spring perch on the strut body to 4 or 5 positions
They're actually pretty neat

You guys are horrible. Funny....but horrible

OP, looks like you got it all sorted out and I would have said 2.1 with a rear coil spacer or 1.4 without (or with if you like more rake. That's how I have mine)
