IS Toytech still the go to suspension for a 2012 DC?

Just asking...currently what my truck has, but it's getting dated.

3" body lift, bagged air suspension in the rear.

Looking to maybe sell soon, or maybe keep.

Advice needed...

Some pics added, truck is on Cooper At3's..great tire.


I might want to refresh the suspension and keep the truck or maybe sell it, I don't know.

Truck does everything I need, and it's paid off.

It only has 130K miles on it, and a new truck would cost me at least 50 grand.

 

That is barely broken in at that mileage. As for the suspension, there are so many options depending on how you use the truck.

 

It's a 4.6, not a 5.7.

NC all it's life, so not much rust, but I do feel like the original Bilsteins are getting wonky.

I use it to go to Lowes or Home Depot on the weekends, it ain't going to MOAB while I own it LOL...

I was thinking just refresh the suspension I have on it. New shocks you know.

I did do a Borla header back stainless outlaw exhaust on it last year. Some muffler jockey put an xpipe on there and it rusted out.

 

4.6 is still a great engine. If you have taken care of it- you still have a long life ahead.

I’d personally avoid toytec, as I have had their shock blow up on me on a dirt road-many others with similar issues.

If you wanna keep it simple- just swap your old bilsteins for new ones!

 

I had a 2013 for 8 years, sold it with 97K on it, and never had an issue with it. It was the 4.6 as well. There are many options depending on what you want to spend. The Bilstein 5100's may be a good fit for your scenario.

 

What are you running now?

 

5100's in the Toytech springs.

They just feel "spongy" in corners, and I think they just need "more"

And I know, Bilstein's are lifetime warranty
