Gonna be level soon!! Yes!!!!

SMITHY · Oct 30, 2011

I ordered the Bilstein 5100's today for my rig. I am putting them on all four corners.

I am gonna set the fronts up to the high setting of 2.8.

I also purchased a 3/4 inch polyurethane spacer for the rear.

This should make it almost perfectly level. Can't wait and got a great price on both.

:naughty:

was by far one of the best mods i did to my 07, install was a bit of a pain, but it was well worth it. Rides so much better than the crap oem shocks

Congrats. I was going to get the Blisteins but was short on funds. Let me know how they do. Where did you get the rear spacers?

discojables · Oct 30, 2011

Where did you order them from and how much did the run you each? I am currently in the market for Bilstein shocks. Ive been looking around at other suspension options but they are super exspensive...

SMITHY · Oct 30, 2011

Got them at www.ajusa.com.....All four cost 309.00. They are offering 10% off for Halloween.

The rear spacer was 43 with shipping from Top Gunz customs.

If you wanted to do the fronts only, they were $97.25 a piece.

I found a mechanic on craigslist believe it or not, on leave with the National Guard from Iraq, who said he would install the kit on the front for $75.00 bucks.

I don't have a spring compressor so I can't tackle it myself. From what I have been reading those rental spring compressors from Oreilly or Advance, just don't cut it.

The way I am doing this should look great with your truck and handle those larger tires you got alot better when out 4-wheeling.

Right on! Free shipping AND 10% off. Deal.

Sorry wife... Tis easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission. LOL

Awesome! Going to look AND ride great. For $75 I sure would let someone else have the fun. It took way longer than it should have for me. The spring compressor you rent will do the job, you just got to be careful.
