F**K YES, another Bilstein thread.

I’m about to put Billies all the way around... trying to get like a 2 inch lift. I wanna keep the “Taco Rake”. But do I AAL or use a block. Anyone else considered this. (Yes I know there’s upwards of 10,000 posts pertaining to this topic. I need someone to be straight-up and belligerent about it tho!)

 

If you want to maintain rake, AAL worth the investment vs. blocks.
Once ass end wears out, or the need for full pack. Then do full pack.
Close and lock thread... lol

 

You got any recommendations on settings for the billies and type of leaf?

 

Measure all four corners, center of hub to fender. Note your measurements.
Factory should have about a 1” rake not 100% on a 2nd gen, all trucks vary!!! AAL packs will all very 1.5-2” lift. So install knowing what height is b4 installing and set clips accordingly. To maintain factory rake after lift.
Best bet is call headstrong and I’m sure Marie can help guide you to the best option. She has probably talked about this more than she ever hoped too.

My first lift was Bilstein at 1.75 in the front and Bilstein in the rear with a 1 1/2” AAL . Was pretty good

 

OME dakar leaf pack, take out one of the leafs if you don't want the full 3 inch lift. Ome 880 or 881 coils up front with bilsteins set to O depending on how much weight you have up front.

 

billies with stock coils on top clip or billies with some other coil. 885s gave me like 2 inches
