Bilsteins - how do they lift ?

along with what chris is saying...the ride will be less jarring, just a bit firmer for better handling and a nice all around ride IMO.

 

So in your opinion it didn't degrade the ride, it actually improved it?

 

i think with just bilsteins it wont be so bad if not even better.. maybe if you put stiffer coils and leafspring thats where it makes significant change in ride quality

 

Yes definatly improved and that was at the 1.75" setting.

 

I felt an improvement in mine and I'm at the 2.5" setting. Yes, the ride is stiffer but that shouldn't be construed as less comfortable. The truck feels tighter and rides better.

 

If I added something like these springs to my factory struts up front, will that cause any problems to my stock components?

 

I think that's my concern. When I hear "stiffer" I think: "it handles corners better but doesn't absorb bumps well." I do a lot of highway driving, so I don't want feel every little bump in the road.
