    Full of questions, but anyone running bilstein 6112s? Getting tired of my stock coils on 5100s @ 1.75 and looking to upgrade and get some ucas.

    Lol it’s not a big deal at all but if anyone else is looking for factory style switches for their locker east coast gear supply is the only place I found them, I hate the way the arb switches look, this will clean things up a lot. Rear end is almost together and front end should get started soon09B9B7C7-3E90-48C0-97BB-4C110AA4C63B.jpg

    Rough ride? I did the same thing about month ago and mine runs great. Granted my previous shocks were toast beyond all reason so anything feels better. Didn't think they were that bad.

    First post under my new username, lost access to the old email. Previously Asian Driver 14. I’d like to know, as well, if anyone has tried the 6112 on the single cab. Looking for a mild lift but it’s a daily and I want to keep the MPGs decent. Stuck between bilsteins at 0.85 and a 1” rear block (I think my leafs are the tiniest bit sagged and I like a little rake) Or bilsteins at 1.75 and a 1.5 AAL, OR leaving it stock and getting another project truck. Decisions decisions

    Didn’t even realize you’re in Maine! I’m from Topsham. Lol how much for the 5100s? As a side note, for real, what add a leaf did you go with?

    Anyone have issues with the stock shifter boot staying in place on their MT?
    Mine always pops out and is a pain to get clicked back in. At least one of the plastic clips on the console seems to be broken.

    I don't run it anymore. Every time my dog hops in there he puts his paw right thru it. So until I figure out a solution I'm bootless.

    I'm running 6112 + 5150 and OME MD leafs.
    Overall I like the performance for the price. Ride is nice, corners well.
    Only complaint I have is they are not adjustable on the truck. Mine are set at 4th notch I believe and I don't have much downtravel resulting in them bottoming going over large bumps. I would like to adjust them down a notch or two but don't wanna have to remove them.

    Yeah, I live in Ellsworth! Looks like I’m keeping the 5100s and throwing on some ome coils and upper control arms for now to see how that goes. I bought the 5100s and add a leaf from wheelers. It’s the just the single add a leaf with the overload still in place.

    Greeting from the Sip. I live up in north MS south of Memphis, however, there was another thread where a guy was seeking advice for shipping his truck from the mainland to Hawaii. He didn't get a lot of replies.

    These were some quick google searches that were posted:

    https://www.hawaiicartransport.com/get-quote.php

    https://www.matson.com/ship-your-car-with-matson-2.html

    Just an idea to float/consier: you might have to ship to CA from Hawaii and then use a cross country carrier to have it shipped to your next station.

    Hope this helps @06RegCab1.
