i would go with the series 2 the spacers are trouble!! did you look at the rancho or the rough country kits???? They are half the money and just as tough??

What dodgedoggy11 said, You may as well spend the money now and get the coilovers, the ride quality between spacer and coilover is night and day, Just food for thought, i had a rough country lift on my old chev, and it was half the price of just about anything, and it was awesome! It comes with spacers, it rode a little stiffer than stock, but its a great kit. You can also get the bilsteins afterwards too.

does he need them if he is getting bilstein adjustable 5100's?

Simple answer, NO.

You'll either get stage 2 OR the Bilstein 5100s. If you have the money for stage 2, I'd go that route. If you're a little short on cash, the stage 1 + Bilstein 5100 setup is what I'm running and I have no complaints. I just couldn't see laying down an extra $1k for better front shocks.

Thank you Kevin that's what i thought, but not having a lift, i didn't want to say something that wasn't right.

The coilover completely replaces the strut. For the stage 2 Pro Comp lift, it is adjustable up to 7.5" (I believe). That route is going to cost an extra $1k. It will ride REALLY nice though.

The Bilstein 5100 route, when added to the 4.5" strut spacer with the sage 1 lift will give you a total of 7.3" of lift (4.5" + 2.8" [assuming you max them]). This route will run you about $200.

So the difference....is it worth an $800 "nicer" ride? To me it's not. I can use that money on other mods.

If your thinking about Bilsteins, there is a group buy in process right now. You can go to the "Group Purchase" thread for information.

Your butt and passengers will like the ride quality from the bilsteins plus the coil overs, especially if they are progressive.
