    After a little searching around I found a supplier that provides most the Bilstiens to local area offroad shops, its called ASI , located in El Cajon, they have a boatload of billies (seems like a lot of guys are looking, but are backordered) I got mine yesterday for $200, out the door its the best price I could find & all I can say is if you are considering 5100's, GET THEM !! What a difference ! smooth,stable & I can go up another notch for more lift if I need to ! The smartest, cheapest mod going......:D:D:cool:

    I'll find the ph# & post

    Ok,Ok, "BRO'" looking truck or not these shocks are great, maybe not as well as Fox or other high end suspension products but for the price/performance they work 2x better than stock bilstiens. As for the "bro" thing I'll get to that in a week or 2, till then I'll just have to look like every other fool in east county that hasn't corrected it (lifted & level is best I know) at least it isn't an F-150 !! At Corral canyon the bumps and shit I used to brace for weren't harsh at all, no bottoming or topping out & the price I quoted ( $140 -$ 150 ) is retail which no one usually never has to pay. The absolute cheapest I've seen them is $88 & change, that was months ago & out of stock/back ordered .......:D:D:cool:

    AND SOME FIST FUCK TOOK THE PJ PEAK SIGN & LEFT THE POST!!!

    Hell yeah I am ha, I'm off school tuesdays thursdays and all next week is spring break so anytime i can go and you're willing to let me tag along ill be there for sure. Is corral canyon prerunner friendly? I've been there on two wheels but never in my truck. I'm saving up for some sliders hopefull thatll protect my truck some if we start doing more difficult stuff...pine valley was trickier then I expected ha. definitely different then a motorcycle but im hooked now.

    Hey doug/guys,

    Is Corral Canyon prerunner friendly?? I went with a friend to PV this weekend and after going on it while it was raining/snowing, it was TOOO easy. I don't want to damage the truck but i want a challenge. Let's hit up a trail on a weekend!

    It is until you get to TDS then gets a little tougher but Locked PreRunners have made it without being pulled out.
