    I have a 2006 dbl cab 4wd. I purchased Bilstein shock for front and back. The backs are installed and I'm doing the fronts soon. My question is what height to set the shocks to? I do tow and carry cargo, so I was thinking 2". But I don't want to do all the work to realize that I should have gone 2.5".

    Thoughts/ suggestions?

    Thanks

    I would go on the 2" setting (4/5) as the ride is smoother than going all the way on the top setting. As you have a DC, it will sit about 1/8th lower than what Bilstein advertises.

    Check out the settings here - http://cart.bilsteinus.com/pdfs/E4-WM5-Y321A00.pdf
