hey just checking to see if anyone is running Bilstein 5100s @ 2.5" in the front with stock coils and Saw1.5" rear coils?
i have read a pile of different threads about guys settings, but curious as to how this setup would ride?
input would be greatly appreciated...i am also replacing the UCAs and gonna run 285/70/17s

:cheers:

right on jambo. what your setting in the front on the billies?? 2.5"?? upon a discussion with antman (who is the sh!t...by the way) he said that there is a small amount of rake still with the SAW rears. with the 2 inch icons your truck must be basically level??

You're thinking backwards I believe...the ICONs are taller than the SAWs, so you will have more rake then Antman :p

True- but it's pretty widely accepted that the SAW 1.5" coils provide about 2" of lift anyway.

Signed- The Shit. Lol

Hey you Shit, I think I read that the ICONs end up close to the 2.5" mark or more...I believe [MENTION=74569]SOcalTRAIL[/MENTION] used to have them and he got ~2" lift, but he's got a lot of junk in the trunk, lol.

Signed- Not cool enough to be the shit. :(
