    Word. Tri flow for the uniball but what kind of grease are you using for the bushings (zirk fitting)? I know it has to be poly safe but I'm curious what brand everyone uses?

    Stock ones, didn't opt for the upgrade at the time since I went with the 881s which only gave me about an inch and a half up front

    Ahhhh ok. There's lots of great UCAs out there. TC , camburg, Icon, LR. Lots of options. You'll be pleased with any of them. TC has the slightly beefier uniball.

    There are two different Bilsteins currently available now for the 1st gen's. There are the RCD/Bilsteins and the Bilstein brand Bilsteins. For the longest time RCD (Race Car Dynamics) had the only 5100's for the first gens. They had propitiatory rights over them and no one else produced them. In late 2015 Bilstein came out with their own. The differences are the notch settings and that the Bilsteins come with dust covers and the RCD/Bilsteins do not. The rears also vary in ext. and collapsed lengths. Here are links to the different 5100 specs.

    Good to know, now I can tell all the naysayers that told me I was wrong about the dust shields in the other thread to go eat dirt, lol. Thanks!
