PTR13-35150 - Bilstein TRD PRO kit - Upgrade??

alright, got my pro kit a while ago but still trying to figure out what I am going to do with the rear. Anyone running light duty dakars with 1/4 spacers in the front? Should be around 2" lift all around yes? Thanks!

 

Hope you get well soon man!

I have worked in the Operating room for over 15 years. It’s not quite as gruesome as you described. Lol But definitely a surgery that can help out those affected. Let us know how your recovery is going. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

 

On paper yes. I have hd dakars to get installed with mine.

 

Anyone have pictures of this lift with stock tires? I have mine ready to be installed but want to make sure it doesn't look too goofy.

 

I'll try and get some tomorrow, and post them.

 

This was my fix for the ebrake cable with my HS 3leaf Pack. Simple bracket that bolts to the front retainer on the pack, put a slight bend in the factory bracket and bolted it at the bottom. No flopping around and worked fine at full droop in the garage.
And just FYI no factory overload if you can’t tell from the photos.

 

Good workaround. I may try this on mine this weekend.

 

I appreciate it.

 

Finally got a chance to putt the skyjacker aal RTC515 in the back! I couldn' find much info on anyone that did that on the 3ed gen but here it is. I couldn't feel any difference in the ride quality so far with an empty bed! Now I had the kit installed for quite some time and that stuffined up the rude a bit but the aal itself yielded no change. The leafs are a little long and I was concerned at first but they are not touching the c-clemps I slipped a credit card there and had someone bouncing the bed and cc stayed free. Easy install no cutting or grinding took about 2 hours.

That is going to cause you trouble. That add a leaf is going to smash into the spring clamp, when flexed. There is a lot more movement while driving, than someone bouncing on back.

 

I agree. Driving around might be ok but when you flex the axle off road it's going to bind

 

added a 3/4 top plate to mine 2nd gen, aal going in a couple of days.

 

Here is a picture you are looking for. Hope this helps.

 

this post is making me claustrophobic with how tight of a fit that truck has in that garage

 

There is a 1-1/2" in front and 3" in back, look tighter. Other side of garage is 3' deeper but need space to get at work bench.

 

I highly doubt it! As the leaf gave a bit of an arch back but still consideably flat so even with a backward arch it might barley touch! Those clamps are very soft metal anyway worse case the leaf will carve them maybe a millimeter at max!

 

Perfect. I was hoping the sport "AT" wouldn't look too goofy with this setup. It looks good enough to be able to deal with it for now.

 

Here is mine on the stock wheels and tires with the OL in.

 

That's a good look imo.

 

Thanks!
