    u can, but you will loose 1.75'' of down travel on your front suspension and it will ride pretty rough

    we did that with my brothers truck and it was a pretty horrible ride.

    I think the best thing for you to do is call they helped us understand every question we had about lifting a truck.

    In our case we wanted to stay around 2.5'' lift in front so we could be in spec for alignment and not have to spend an extra $400 on UCAs.

    Hi guy's, I've got two part numbers for the front adjustable Bilstein shocks; which is correct ?
    I have a 2010 TRD with the TSB done.

    1st P/N : BE5-C477-T1

    2nd P/N : BE5-C475-H1

    The top p/n is from Down South Motor Sports
    and the second is from the Bilstein web page.. I have found that they are using different part numbers than the ones starting out with ex. BE5-xxxx-xx

    So any info would be a big help.. Thanks
