Bilstein 5100

That what ur running Preerunner?

 

End result is I want level. No rake. So with a 1.5" lift in rear I'd need to come up like 2.5" in front I believe.

 

Yep. Stock bumps also. I have the 5100s rears for 0-2" of lift. With my OEM overload in on my 3 leaf pack (2+1) I have 2 inches. Would recommend leaving your overload spring in as well.

 

Check your measurements now and see what you'll actually need as far as height difference front/rear to be level.
You have a 4 leaf pack, right?

 

Hmmm, I'm very happy with my 884s on 5100s. 2" lift and wouldn't change the ride one bit:

 

Rear 36" ground to fender
Front 34.5 "

4 leaf?

 

4 leaf. 3 main and the thick one at the bottom is your overload. I would make sure that 3 leaf AAL is compatible with the 4 leaf pack just in case.

 

Seems like it should work. Thats the leaf set from wheelers

"A 3 leaf progressive racing style Add A Leaf set. Works with or without your factory overload leaf. Comes with longer U-bolts and center pins."

 

Both the U bolts and centering pins are length long enough. I had to cut my centering pins shorter.

 

Sweet ride...

 

Looks like I can get everything at wheelers best price.

Bilstein 5100 Front : $170
Bilstein 5100 Rear : $145
3 Leaf Progressive : $160

Delivered $475

Ill call Monday to see if my expectations will be met. Overall lift and quality of ride.

 

Thanks! DCLBs look better when they're a bit higher than stock.

 

I have the billies from Headstrong and Im lovin em. Dont have updated pics, but its on my 2014 SportDCSB, with 885 coils.

 

Today I just paired my front 5100s with 885x coils, LR uca, 1/4 driver lean spacer, rear 5100s and deavers 1.5"-2" aal. Ride is 100x better than just 5100s alone. No more driving vibes @ 57-65 mph, no more road wondering. I too got it from Headstrong Offroad for the price of $787.

 

Lets see it!!! post some pics.

 

I have that exact set up in my cart @ headstrong for $1032.99. Still unsure what I want to do.

 

Did you need new uca's?

 

Let's see those upgrade pictures! Of the the new set up

 

You'll also need the taco lean spacer for the left side. Are you building your own fronts or do you need them to mount the coils for you? I'm going to pay them to do it for me. I don't have the tools or the guts to try it myself.

 

You can go to auto zone or O'Reilly and they will loan you coil compressors. I changed the struts on my pathfinder. Piece of cake.

And to be honest macdaddy, I'm a cheap ass. I want to do it the right way just try to penny pinch. I've sent emails toytec and headstrong asking if I can get full package with progressive 3 leaf instead of aal. Seems that will give me a smoother ride. They also offer UCA'S and diff drop in the package. I've read mixed reviews on both. Some say you don't need others saying it's a must. Hopefully I can get a non biased answer from sales rep.
