    I've got the bilsteins 6112 up front and 6112's out back. I got them because it's going in the dirt. Desert to be exact. Fronts are adjustable, rears stock height. A little more feel on roads, off road at speed, great!!!!!!

    @MakMurph, I can't speak to how it sits with a big trailer on as I only pull a small boat. But, I have 5100's on all four corners with the fronts on the middle setting. From about 10 feet away the truck appears level but actually still has about an 1 1/2" rake to it. FWIW, I've been extremely pleased with their performance and the look.

    Good to know duece thinking of doing just the fronts on the middle setting I don't tow my camper too terribly often but it is 6200# dry so that is why I'd like to keep a little bit of rake the eibach are a little cheaper not much but their still fairly new not a lot of reviews yet thanks

    I did 6112s on 3rd setting and that was supposed to give me 1.9 inches of lift in the front. If you're towing that much you're gonna need either a rear lift or airbags. I did both. You'll be fine without any mods to the rear but you'll most likely have some squat being leveled.

    5100's on all 4 corners. Fronts on top setting. Here's how my truck sits now. Will be going to coilovers soon. So will be selling these I suppose. Love the ride with them. You won't be disappointed if you get them :thumbsup:
