Bilstein 5100s Installed!

Replaced the OEM suspension with Bilstein 5100s all the way around. Went with the adjustable ride height in the front. I'm very pleased with the results ... No more 'RAKE'!! Set at highest setting, and currently sitting on 285 65 18 NITTO Ridge Grapplers. Wheels next! Looking at the FUEL Vapor in 20".

 

Looks great!

 

Nice - Any lift in the rear? Or just front top setting?

 

Nope, just front top setting.

 

@Lablover71 Looks great!
I installed my rear ones tonight. Did you reuse all of the pieces from the old shock except for the top nut?
Mostly wondering about the cushion retainer on the underside. Pics attached. Some have said to reuse, some say discard. The Bilsteins have a small rectangular metal piece and I didn't know if that takes the place of the original part or you need both. Thanks!

 

I replaced my rear shocks with 5100's recently and I reused the underside cushion retainer. Haven't had any issues.

 

@Pat Excellent. Thanks. Just wanted to make sure.

 

Thanks, TNT! I had a local off-road shop install them for me. I do know some of the parts were re-used, however, I cannot tell you exactly which ones. Sorry, I’m sure that’s not much help to you.
