Hi forum,
I just ordered a set of Bilstein 5100's from Stage 3. What height does everyone run them at? I want to have a little bit of rake so I don't sag when I'm towing but, I want to be close to level and not looking at the ground like I do now with the stock shocks.

1.5"

I have mine set at the second highest setting and to me it looks perfect, still has a tiny bit of rake

Have mine at the 2nd notch from the top...gained 1-1/2 inches in the front.

PawPaw, Your truck looks awesome! Thats exactly the look I'm going for. Do you think the extra weight of the 6.5 foot bed will make a difference?

Thank you everyone for all of the replies! I'm gonna do the 1.5" setting. Ill post some pictures on here when Its done.

Anyone running bigger tires with this setup? Im leaning towards ordering this also, maybe get a 1" block for the rear too.

The longer bed shouldn't make that much of a difference...at the 1-1/2" setting you can run 33 or 34 inch tires using the stock wheels too. Thanks for the compliment on my truck!

I'm running 275x60x20 (33x11) Toyo's...a 275x65x20 (34x11) should fit easily..I put the Bilsteins in the rear also and when I'm towing the ATV's the rear doesn't sag as bad as with the stock shocks.





Heavy Polaris in the front but not much sagging.

I was thinking of running a 34" or equivalent. Thanks!
