    Hello all, I've narrowed down my lift needs to likely the Billstein 6112s preset at 1.9 inches for the simple fact they will be ready to go, no need for new UCAs, and they seem like a solid set up. For the rear I will wait to lift it to see how I like the set up, but I wanted some opinions on rear shocks. 5100s seem ok, 5160s seem like a good option especially if you lift an inch or inch and a half but have a 90 day warranty? WTF is that? Then I saw on here someone did the OME nitro chargers, kinda mix and match. But they seem like a good choice too. Any opinions out there on this? Thanks!

    I don't know anything about the OME nitro chargers. But the shocks you're considering for the front have digressive valving. Just be sure the OME's are digressive as well, otherwise stick with Bilsteins. Just my opinion but I personally wouldn't mix progressive and digressive valving.

    This is what the ARB Tech department told me regarding their shocks.

    Heard back from the engineer, he said in your application the shock/strut would be digressive.

    Ok makes sense. I just saw a few cases of 5160s leaking which for as expensive as they are it makes one a little nervous!
