    Hey everyone,

    I'm new to the forum and wanted to know what you guys think of this suspension kit from wheelers. Is this a good kit for the price? Would you recommend something else?

    I go camping out on forest roads every other weekend (Northern AZ). I normally don't do any crazy crawling but recently went to Alstrom point in Utah and realized that I need to get something that can handle that type of trail.

    Should I go with this kit? Any other recommendations?

    The kit comes with Bilstein 6112 Series front struts and coil springs, Bilstein 5160 Series shocks paired with All-Pro Off-Road 3" lift expedition leaf springs, All-Pro Upper Control Arms. The kit also includes carrier bearing drop, U-bolt flip kit, Wheeler's SuperBump Front and Rear Bumpstops, and extended brake lines. This kit is about $2,000 no tax with free shipping.

    That sale price - $1400 looks pretty killer to me

    I was also considering saving up a little more and going with Kings, Total Chaos UCAs, and OME leafs. But that would be double the cost...

    Would that be an overkill for the type of off-roading I'll be doing? Should I go with Bilsteins or Kings?

    Not sure what you ended up doing but I purchased the wheelers kit in May, just got everything and got it installed along with JBA UCAs. Kit checked all the boxes for me and includes most of everything you need.
