I’m looking to lift my 23 1500 Bighorn 4wd, non-ORG. I WANT either 35/12.5r18 or 285/75r18. The tire size isn’t really up for debate lol. How to get the clearance, now THAT is the debate.

Option 1: Bilstein 5100 (preassembled) at 2.6/highest clip front struts w/ Rough Country UCA’s, 5100 rear shocks + Eibach Pro Stage 1” lift springs.

Option 2: Rough Country 3.5” lift kit w/ N3 struts & Shocks

I had bilsteins on my 4th Gen. and LOVED the ride. I also had 35’s with that.

Why not do the Eibach pro kit? Great riding kit and it will give you the clearance you want. I would recommend that along with the Zone UCA's
