    Hey guys I'm looking to replace my factory Bilsteins, on my '21 OR 4x4

    I'm looking at 5100's front and rear, and was wondering what coil to get. I want a nice comfortable ride, I don't need anything stuff as I just want to level the front to the back, and improve the ride quality. I've used my taco off-road quite a bit stock for 50k miles and the suspension has gotten very rough. To be expected after I've beat on it.

    Again I just want something that rides decent like it did from the factory or better. I'm usually on road and every now and then I venture off road so I don't need anything stiff. Thanks!

    I have a 2019 Sport, I just replaced all four struts with bilstien 5100 and a 1" block in the rear 2" up front . I do drive alot of highway and shitty roads down here on the island and I noticed the bilstiens are alot stiffer than stock. They handle large bumps very well but driving over pot holes and manhole covers I definitely feel it alot more . Also I kept my factory springs.

    Yeah so research has shown the higher you place the ring on the front 5100's the stiffer it rides. I'm looking for maybe a 1 inch level in the front and just stock in the rear, with a better quality ride. I don't want to change tires or wheels just level the front and improve ride quality, or at least return to factory quality. The stock Bilsteins are long in the teeth so to say and she rides as bad as my 2002 F350 on leaf springs sometimes lol.
