hey everyone I have recently put in a set of bilstein 5100 set at the max setting on my 2012 outdoorsman. I want my truck to sit a little higher and want to do this before I go and buy a set of rims and tires so I have an idea of what size to go with. I want to probably go with just 34 inch tires. So i guess the question is, is either 3inch bl or 1.25 bl? and has anyone ever had any problems? I have tow hooks and My rear hitch.and put on a dual exhaust so what are the ways with those things . thanks

You can still use your tow hooks with some modification with a 1.25 body lift. If your exhaust is stock you can just turn the tips up with either body lift and your rear hitch will still be back there just the same as it is now will just have a small gap between it and your bumper but will look fine

I'm running 35x11.50r20 with my 2009 stock laramie rims. All I have is bilsteins at max and 1.5" spacers in rear. Been on there for a year now with no problems...if that helps any.

If you just want 34s you probably wont have a need for the body lift. You can fit 35s on just the bilsteins
