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

Please post pic results when you install. Very interested in your results...Going to order mine today at local dealer.

 

I hear ya. I’m planning to order a 3leaf as well, but undecided on the overload.

My indecision about the overload in/out is more due to the unknown ride quality with it in vs out, and the reduced capacities without it. I’m not too worried about over-extending the shocks. If the extended measurements are what folks have reported (putting them on par with 5160/OME) I don’t foresee any issues.

 

After a few weeks I finally got these, planning on installing them over this weekend. I did get a free alignment from my dealer for my 5k service i'm at 8k now. Do you guys think they would still hook it up after I install these?

 

Bet you could get away with it. Get it back as close as you can and dont mention you added the suspension. Its really not much more work than if you had not done it. Few more turns of the wrench.

 

Watch that video a few pages back. These are 2" taller in front than a 2g. 3g are supposed to be 1" taller than 2g, so they should see more like 1". Curious as to why they are seeing more. Maybe this is before it settles a bit.

 

How many of installation kit baggies are there suppose to be included? I only have 3, is that correct?

 

Just got an email from Conicelli that my order that I placed 2/8 is on backorder. Stock should be received by 2/21.

 

That is weird, mine will be here tomorrow ordered it on the 8th of Feb just like you did.

 

Ordered from OPW 2/11 will be here later today

 

Just got mine from Evans, ordered 2/2

 

I think the Baja has a different set of bilsteins than 2015 Pros...

 

The only difference are spring rates and it doesn't come preinstalled.

 

I think the Baja has a 650 lb coil and the Pro is 600 lb. Pretty sure I saw that on their thread.

 

Get those installed asap, so i can see what they look like on a 2G, lol.

Remind me, do you have an AAL currently or plan on adding one? OL in or out?

 

AAL for now, wheelers or icon...will keep the OL in because longbed+200lb shell.

 

Hoping to have mine put on my 2nd gen this Saturday with the Wheelers 3 leaf AAL, sans-overload.

 

Got ya. Think i will do AAL with OL out and get some Daystar cradles for my bags. That should give me the 1.5" out back i need and improve my ride. Currently using bags to increase height a bit and it sucks, lol.

 

Definitely post some pics. I'm curious what route to go and thats what i'm lookin at.

And sit on the front, so i know what it looks like with my bumper and winch, lol.

 

Out of all the options for the rear, what option comes with the least amount of risk in regard to vibes?

ie. Is a full replacement pack more likely to result in vibes vs. an AAL?

 

Well hell...TW pulled me in again. So I went by my local dealer and told the parts guy to look this kit up. He normally sells them for $684. Told him that one of the other dealers online were selling for $550 at one point. He thought about it and said Ok...I will do $550 but I am only making $10 on it but $10 is better than nothing. So with tax it cost me $579 and should be here by Monday...Will wait to install (get little warmer) and to see how others have turned out with AAL installed. Looking for close to level or little rake is OK.
