Just installed Bilstein 6112s @ 2.8" (came preassembled) along with ReadyLift UCAs in the front, and 5100s with 1.5" Motofab spacers in the rear. I was pretty meticulous about torque specs and tightening everything up with suspension under full weight. I got a professional alignment done day after the install. Over all, the struts net'd me about 2 1/2" in the front, and exactly 1.5" in the rear with spacers. The ride is noticably smoother than stock and seems to absorb bumps better. No vibrations/shutter in 4x4, no grinding, no creaking (sp?), etc. Everything seems normal or better, except...
I get this slight jiggle or rattle (more feel than hear) under my feet when going over some bumps, not all. And while it seems to be more pronounced over larger bumps when it does occur, it doesn't happen most of time. I noticed the same thing very infrequently on my stock suspension--again not every bump would produce the jiggle/rattle and it didn't seem to matter how big the bump was (i.e. even very large bumps didn't usually produce it). But, it has definitely increased in frequency since putting in the new suspension components.
Any suggestions on where to start looking would be appreciated.
