Some claim that the front suspension sits lower after settling due to the engine weight and the fact that the front is generally heavier than the rear. That doesn’t seem to be the case here. I usually prefer a slight rake, where the rear sits just a bit higher.

You definitely need an alignment. Remember, Bilstein shocks are longer, and the way they change the suspension geometry is more significant than the Westcott design. It’s not just about that small height difference.

Could you share your alignment specs, especially since you haven’t changed your UCA?

Thanks for the info and your contribution to the community. I commented on one of your YouTube videos yesterday and got a quick response. Can you tell us more about how airbags work, and why not just replace the rear springs with stronger ones instead?

Hi, now that more than a year has passed, do you think the front suspension sits a bit lower? Do you have any rake, or is it perfectly leveled?

yes

Well, when I got my brand new car, there were already some visible scratches on the paint. I even spoke with the sales manager, and he offered to polish it. I agreed, and at first it looked good, but after one car wash, everything reappeared. It seems like they damaged the clear coat, and...

You’re right, actually that was the best answer so far, and thank you for that. And yes, they are out. The screenshot I posted is from the Bilstein official website: you choose the brand, model, and exact trim, and it gives you options to choose from.

Thx for sharing.

Its well over by budget but i really like em, thanks for sharing.

Well, the short answer would be performance and less body roll. I’m not answering in a way that some people come in and change the subject by saying preloaded collar lift kits are better or the same. I simply don’t see a point in paying around $500 for CNC aluminum when, for the same price, you...

Hi guys, Has anyone upgraded their suspension on the 6th gen using Bilstein 5100s and used the adjustable perch to level the vehicle? I’m planning on doing a 2-inch front lift with the 5100s and keeping the rear stock height but still replacing it with Bilstein (like what’s shown on the...

But your video is only showing the front coilovers, not the rear ones :)

I saw your YouTube video and was wondering where you’re located and how much you would charge for labor to install Fox 2.0 on an SR5, just like the one you did in the video.
