Weird Bilstein Question

[DILLIGAF]

So I just took delivery of my Superlift 4" lift Kit and it came with Bilsteins. The issues is I Have the Rancho quick lifts upfront already. Can I use the springs from the Ranchos or Do I really have to source OEM springs ?

From what I know, the Quicklift uses lifted coil springs, with an increased spring rate which attributes to the lift. They do look the same size but are not the same. I would say use OEM, or keep what you have now and sell the Bilstein. Dont try to jerry rig it.

How much lift did the quicklift give?

how tall are the front strut spacers? (please measure)

I ask because most guys adjust their bils up to about 1.4 so if that's all you got just put the Ranchos back on

Good advice from jb1

I went from rancho's to bilsteins. The problem isn't the springs it's the hardware. You need pieces from the OEM strut as well as the coil.

I sourced outdoorsman struts off eBay in order to get the "heavy duty" struts because I knew I would be running an aftermarket bumper. Worked out perfect.

Decided to keep the Ranchos, Couldn't find the parts needed so I said **** it.

How much lift did just the Ranchos give you up front?

I never checked. It almost leveled the truck when I put them on 2 years ago.

Alignment in the morning. But she's finally done. Now time to hunt down some 36"

Do your Ranchos lean to one side? I hear this is a problem.
