Headstrong kit, Coil/Bilstein 5100 lift Kit question

Marie...? You still there?

 

I'm here now

 

Good morning Marie & @HeadStrong Off-Road,

I need a recommendation on a lift system. I have a 2015 SRB, Double Cab, 4x4. I'd like to get a 3" lift to clear my 275/70/17 tires...they rub just a bit on full turns.

I plan on putting an ARE camper shell on back...no plan for a winch on front.

Need a system that is comfortable, and functional. Not a rockcrawler. I read your website, and think the 5100 with Dakar might be the way to go. Just not sure which coils or UCAs to get. Also a bit unsure on the medium or heavy option for the rear. Leaning toward heavy, so it doesn't sag if I tow a boat.

Looking forward to your PM response.

Thanks,
Gordon

I’m thinking my 09 frame will be replaced this year and I’m planning ahead and want to replace the shocks all around. I don’t want a lift, just a level and currently have 5100’s set at the .85 setting. Would 884s with the 5100 on the zero setting be higher than this? Would the 883s be a better fit?

Hey Marie!

I need a recommendation on a lift system as well. I have a 2014 Tacoma TRD, Double Cab, 4x4. I'd like to get about 2.5"- 3" lift.

I do have a Leer camper top on the bed, but hardly ever have much weight at all in the back.

I have been researching your website, and have been leaning towards the Bilstein 5100s with the add a leaf. I'm not sure if this is the best option, or if I should just replace the whole leaf spring? Also, I'm not sure which size coils or UCAs to get. Also, are the coils set at zero?

Any advice would be very much appreciated!

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Marie,

I’ve been searching like a mad man trying to find a lift kit that will suit my needs. I have a 2017 DC OR Tacoma and want to fit 33” Tires on 16” rims with a -25 offset (SCS F5’s). Would the 5100 Bilsteins do the trick? I mostly commute on paved roads but do plenty of fire roads and logging roads on the weekends when I’m not working. If so what coils and leafs springs should I get to fit some 285/75r16 tires?

Thanks,
Tenacious D

 

Working on PM now

 

Hi Marie,

I was wondering do you do military discounts? I'm interested in letting my 2016 trd OR DCSB and wanna run 285/70/17s is there a lift kit you can recommend to me. Thanks

Has anyone installed this HS Billie kit “with the full Dakar leaf pack” on a DCSB with a camper shell. I want to see some pics of the rake.

 

Is it possible to get shocks with the coils pre installed?

 

yep, there is an option for that when you purchase the kit. That's what I did when I purchased my kit from HS.

 

Thats awesome, one more question that you or someone else could maybe answer...

I originally intended in just doing 885 coils, but I have dreams of plate bumper..which probably means 887 coils. If i never end up getting a bumper, would having the 887 be a big deal? Any downsides?

 

Anyone recommendations for leveling out my 2015 2wd trd sport prerunner. looking to keep it fairly stock and run at the most 31x10.5r17 tires. Was thinking bilstein 5100s all the way around with the front end up at 1.75 with this be ok with a camper shell on the back?

 

Hello, I have a 2017 TRDOR DCLB. I currently have 3/2 Rough Country Spacer lift and 287/75/16 KO2s. I love the look and do not wanna lose any height but I'm ready for a real suspension. As a matter of fact Id like to lose some of the rubbing as well.

Can I run the coil/Bilsrien 5100 kit w Dakars w a 1" toytec body lift? If so what coils do you recommend?

 

Hey Marie,

Could use your help. Want to go with the attached setup but need help. If you could, could you PM me and we setup a call? Thanks!

 

Hey @HeadStrong Off-Road ,
I was wanting to know if I got the 5100 billies with 885 coils and dakar leaf pack! Would that give me a slight rack?
