leveling kit question

mattyhfd · Feb 6, 2014

Don't know who to use?

I plan on getting a leveling kit very soon? Going with the spacers bc I like the ride as is. I just don't know which brand spacer to use..... Any recommendations???

Get the Bilstein 5100 adjustables...my 2 cents

Bilstein 5100!!!!!!!

If you like your current ride, make sure you get a spacer that spaces the strut assy and not a coil spacer.

HellBent Steel seems to be a very popular choice. I hear there is something to assuring they are rotated correctly before installed.

HBS.
Unless you need new shocks or want a stiffer ride (from what I've read here) there's no need to spend way more money for the Bilsteins to get the same result.

The stiffer ride of the bils is momentary. Mine have settled in to being way smoother than stock.

They may. That's just what I've read here.

Hey man, you got 4 threads, all started in 24hrs, in the lifted section (back to back to back to back) all about leveling kits. Try to keep related topics in the same thread

helps eliminate clutter. Also, try the search function

Doesn't leveling with shocks transfer the stress that should be on the springs to the shock mounts? Anyone have any trouble with shock mounts from this? It used to be an issue in the old days with Monroe Load Leveler shocks and air shocks that we stuck under our hot rods.

HBS 2" leveling review

Thinking about purchasing this. Anyone who has it, what are your thoughts? Quality? Will it last? How will it hold up with use off road? thanks

sausec17 · Feb 7, 2014

Bro come on now! You're killing us with 5 threads about leveling kits in the past 2 days! PLEASE use the search function before posting these threads. I promise ALL of your questions have been answered MULTIPLE times!

mattyhfd · Feb 7, 2014

When ever I type something into the search, I get "sorry-no results" or something similar to that. I know how forums work and how searches work, I've been on jeep jk forums forever, so sorry I'm killing you.

sausec17 · Feb 7, 2014

strange, I found 12 pages worth of 100+ threads that discuss information about HBS when I used the search....? lol

The following errors occurred with your search:

Funny, like I said, I can't search anything.....? Glad it works for you, doesn't for me

sausec17 · Feb 7, 2014

Not here to fight man, but we see these questions almost everyday, frustrating to say the least.

Takes just about 30min to scroll through and search to find your answers.

It wouldnt bug me so much if this was just one thread, but when you create 5 threads relative to each other its frustrating for us all. Roll up your sleeves and dig through the forum man, youll find alot of other good information too. Or just keep asking questions in a single thread

I don't see a problem with posting a new thread about a question they have. The search on PHP forums isn't exactly intuitive. With that said, please don't create multiple threads about the same topic. I'd just stick with something like "Leveling Questions" and ask all your questions there.

Hey mods, can we get a cleanup on isle 6. :happy175:

quietpeen · Feb 7, 2014

i merged all the threads together.

Now to answer your question. HBS makes quality level kits. I have a 2" on my truck. No problems at all. I can't answer your question on holding up to off road abuse as i don't do that, but i see no reason why they wouldn't

Mine is a 2wd with a 2" front spacer.
