Rough country struts or bilstein 5100?

trying to decide which would be the best route to go, I have the RC lift on my truck now with the spacers in front and blocks in the rear along with the RC 2.0 shocks. the RC struts and 5100 would eliminate the need for the spacer on the front coil. should I go ahead and do 5100 all around or just get the RC to match up the front with the back?

Just not a rough country person .

 

well Ive always ran their lifts, on my jeep and now on my taco, never had any problems with them.

 

I've seen a ton of JKU and JK's with big rough country problems . Just wondering, if you have had such luck with them....why ask ? Just a question no bad intentions .

well ive just seen on the forums a lot of people run the 5100's and was just curious if I should stick with the rc or goto the billies.

 

the main reason I went with rc is because it was the most budget friendly for what I do in my truck which is mostly highway with occasional mine roads or strip jobs and the lift still be good quality "from past experiences" as much as I would love a full brand new coilover kit with new uca and the whole 9 yards lets face it, I wouldn't use it to its full potential nor would I have the $$$

 

Billstiens are good , I had them on my 04 . They did well. I would go that direction if I were you and choosing between the two .

 

that's what I was leaning towards then happened to come across the rc, 99% sure I will go with the billies

 

In that case I would definatly go the 5100's. I think you will be pleased. Get the OME coils also

 

I heard the ome make it stiff as hell if you don't have a steel bumper to add some weight up there

 

You have a choice in coils. Headstrong has a chart that shows which will carry weight which for no rate also the lift you will get in each. Real world stats .
Call them and ask questions they will set you up at a great price.

 

Nice move you will be happy

 

Bilstein is the only option I see listed.

 

I would steer clear or RC. They are ok. Mine are stiff and already starting to rust. They have only been on since June. They got the job done for this summers mountain trail driving but it wasn't comfortable. It did convince my wife that we needed to upgrade though

 

i can see what youre saying, for the most part my rear rough countries are smooth on highway but potholes speedbumps bumpy road it will jar your teeth out lol

 

I have the bilsteins with OME 885 coils on my double cab (stock bumper). The first couple of weeks are a little stiff but they smooth out and now it rides like a dream.

 

i think the spacer i have on the coils now from RC is either 2 inch or 2.5 so idk if i should get the OME 884 or 885, however headstrong offroad makes a 2 inch coil for like 150$
