    I did the carrier bearing reversal and it did nothing for me but make it worse.

    Bil 6112/5160's etc.
    The yellow Bilstein 4600's are a 46mm diameter shock, the 5100's are a 51mm diameter shock. The 5100's also have an extra inch or so of travel if I'm not mistaken. Not a huge upgrade, but still an upgrade.

    AAL is pretty much always better because it's less prone to axle wrap.
