3rd Generation 5100's set at .65 or 1.1 questions

Has anyone had any needle bearing issues when running 3rd gen Bilstein 5100's at either .65 or 1.1. Thanks

Why are you asking? I’m about to put on Bilsteins set at either .65 or 1.1. Are you having problems?

 

Do it now or do it later. Either way your going to have to do it.

 

I did at 1.1

 

What’s the difference between 1.1 front and stock rear? Assuming 1/4” lower in front?

 

I have not installed mine yet. I did talk to a few people who have installed at 1.1 or at .65 and so far no one had had issues.

 

You had needle bearing issues?

 

Its hit or miss. My buddy got the vibe with a 1 inch level on his SR5.

My 2nd gen had the vibe after 1.85.

Just do the bearing.

 

Got mine set @ 2", no issue.

The OEM TRD 2/1" lift kit does not have the issue either.

 

Got them put on today. Set at second height. Raised front ~3/4”. Perfect for me. Rides great.

 

Looks good!

 

Have mine set at 1.1 and did get some slight noise . Plan to do the ECGS bushing soon.

 

Also set at 1.1 and need to replace the needle bearing. Getting minor vibration and noise.

 

I installed my Bilstein 5100's last Sunday morning. Set them at .65.
