    Just picked up a 15 TRD off-road a few weeks ago and I'm in the process of getting the bilstein 5100 and setting them at 1.75. I know there's a million threads on this but does it void the warranty? Didn't want alignment issues or certain things to go out. Feedback? Thanks

    Bilstein 5100 package in the mail Wednesday and in the shop by today. They accidentally set it at 2.25 instead of my requested 1.75. Back in the shop Friday..also I have a stock rear stock.

    Ps-llumar ceramic tint was installed with air blue 80% on the front windshield

    Good color choice :thumbsup:
    shouldn't void your warranty unless they can can prove it caused the problem

    Air freshener....
    I would have the shop take it down to 1.75. Running that on the 5100s can't possibly be that smooth of a ride. Mine at 1.75 already feels pretty stiff. You did request it a certain way and they... didn't do it. Not sure how they could mess that up being it is the last setting. If you like the ride and can live with the bro lean then keep it.

    I had 5100 installed the other day, I guess they were set too high or the previous owner of the shocks had AAL's in the rear. I have the BRO LEAN as well. I hate it!!!! need to save for 5100s and AAL in the rear now.
