    Oh I'm not sold on the led pod lights, I just liked the price of $175 for some (somehopefully) nice lights.

    The problem with wheel bearing premature failure is there not designed to take the entire weight of the vechile when you move your tires away from the body your taking the weight of the vechile off the tires and putting them on the bearings and suspension

    When I worked at Auto zone I had punk high school kids come in looking for wheel bearings for there mom's brand new Ford f250 and when I looked at the truck they had 6" wheel spacers with 22" wheels and rubber band tires I'm like there's your problem

    Besides from the 1”-ish lift in the front, would there be any benefits to changing the (off-road) factory suspension on my 2011 for the factory 2018 pictured? Better quality or anything? I tow a smaller covered trailer during the summer? So my leaf springs are always on my mind.

    They say opinions are like buttholes...so here's mine

    Well they have less miles on them but I wouldn't call them better quality than what you have now...just newer. Not sure what s/he's asking but some Bilstein 5100's aren't very expensive & offer you some height adjustability. Stock leafs are trash, I wouldn't even spend the time swapping stock for stock if they were free :crapstorm:

    I appreciate the opinion(s)! I’m somewhat torn between wanting Bilsteins, Coils and Leafs and not being able to afford all three.

    Little this. Little that 4x4 Swap’d PreRunner
    x2 on the buy once cry once.

    I’m on setup #4. Always told myself the cheaper option ‘will be fine’. But was never happy.

    Learn from others trial/error, take your time and do it right the first time. :thumbsup:
