Great White Taco build

Oops. Check my edit.

 

That was what I meant. I thought they were the same..

So 5100 extended are not the same as B110

 

Different.
5100 = 14.22 collapsed and a 24.06 extended
B110 = collapsed length 16.34 and extended length 27.28
I had the 5100 when I had TSB Leaf + AAL's.
Switched to B110 when I went to Dakars + 29XL AAL
Make sure you confirm that your bump stops will protect the shock because of the longer collapsed length of the B110.

 

I have Icon 2.5 with resi. And Dakars with

$81 D29XL Leaf Spring

D29XL. This is the specs of my shocks:

-Icon 2.5 resi rear shocks
Rear: collapsed length - 14.85", extended - 24.2"

 

Yup, those are similar collapsed/extended specs for the 5100's.
IMO, you won't able to take full advantage of your All Pro's droop range.

 

which shocks would recommend?

 

Correction: They are called the Bilstein 5100 RCD/B110 Extended Length shocks. I linked you to Marie's product page.

Make sure you don't order the Bilstein 5100 Standard Length shocks.

 

David - check out my OBW/Portable Water Pressure mod.
I showed you part of it when you came to visit last month. I finally finished it.

 

I will be heading this way with my OBW. Selling my Waterport soon, to fund a dual Jerry Can mount for my swingout

 

They're the "+2" and are 15.9" collapsed and 26.8" extended. I've got the same Dakar pack w/

$81 D29XL Leaf Spring

D29XL.

 

@fatfurious2 are your rear icons included with the price of the Dakars?

 

Hah! I havent thought about selling them yet. But if I did, I would list them around $700

 

So that's a yes On a more serious note, did you install rear extended brake lines yourself?

 

yes I did. I ordered from @OCTaco. I think they were $90 shipped, in whatever length you want. I believe I got stock +4". I have the flare nut wrench.

Here are the rear shocks I have (without the CDC) :

Ok, good to know. I've never messed with brakes aside from just changing the pads, so it'd be nice to have someone else there when I install extended lines. I also should get some B110s, but for now I'll just stick with the 5100s.

 

Here for the rear spring update

 

John and I have done them a few times. I have my fronts done too. Ill be replacing my rotors next week.. Not sure if Im going to bleed the brakes again

 

We need a mod day where we install my prinsu and install leafs on both our trucks. And put a lair sticker on Johns truck!

 

agreed! and before it gets too cold. I dont function well in cold

 

Your prinsu! That cats outta of the bag
