Those are it.^ i been really wanting to install a rear bag kit tho so I can haul/tow with the truck being lowered. I've had some heavy loads in the bed that were just too much an it would sag like a *****!

imo the Street Performers are right in between the Belltech Nitro-Drops and the Bilsteins.... Nitro Drops were too soft and Bilteins too firm...

just ordered the rear Street Performers... you would love a simple bag setup, for now I keep 20 lbs in the bags to keep it just a tad (barely noticeable) a rake look. Took whole family out Sunday and filled to 40 lbs and height was perfect. When I tow the boat and have passengers I fill to 80 lbs and the stance is perfect..

Maybe it's the difference in the weight with my standard cab, but with the Belltech Street Performance shocks, poly bushings and no load, I have keep my bags near the 5psi minimum or else it's a very stiff ride.

Mods are addictive...

tell me about it Greg : I finally got around to installing the Timbrens. I didn't realize how much I was tearin up my fenderwells before I installed them...I'll know more tomorrow during my commute as the freeways around here are pretty harsh. I also received my Street Performers about a week ago that I need to install...

Fred, they look good. If you still have a little contact you can shim them using thick washers. I have one shim on each side and run the back road at speed without touching. I think you'll be surprise how much they assist the shocks.

I'm happy with them so far...some dips in th road that I usually cringe at did not bother it, can't wait to drive home...gonna take the "Pass".... narrow windy road that people treat like a road coarse, I can see how these would help with the side to side roll...
