After some wrong parts received, ball joint issues, strut disassembly issues, I finally got the bilsteins installed. Pretty happy with them. Went with 2.1 setting. Just wondering if they will settle at all? Drove 20 miles so far. Front is jist a tad higher than I wanted. Not a big deal. Just curious.

I just did the same with mine. I set it at 2.8 with Icon 1.5" rear coil springs in the back. Whereabouts in Wisconsin are you?

No pics?

Did you use the adjustable Bils? If so, you can drop it a bit after you've driven the truck and don't see a change. Measure the distance from the ground to the center of the wheelwell arch and record that. Then, after a 100 miles or so, measure it again.

Looks good! Yer right, it looks a bit nose high but I'd drive it and see if it settles.
