Bilstein 5100...Love it

Are you still pleased with the ride at 1.2? How stiff is the suspension on bumpy roads?
Would you do it again?

I’m at 1.2 and I personally like the look better than leveled. Truck rides great and a little rake is beneficial when hauling/towing. I have 265/70 tires.

I did the rears already but am looking for more improvement. I’ll probably purchase the struts this weekend in the Stage3 Father’s Day sale.

Glad to hear 1.2 still feels good. I saw some posts where people are saying it’s very stiff at 1.8.

I have a few questions if you don’t mind.

Was 1.2 enough to feel like you were lifted up and driving at a better angle?

Do you have adaptive cruise control? Any issues there?

Are you running bigger than stock tires?

It’s a small lift, but it is noticeable when driving. I have ACC and haven’t noticed any issues. Stock tires were 265/65 and I’m running one size taller at 265/70, which is widely considered as big as you can go in the 17” size without modifying crash bars, etc.

Yes! They are stiffer than the factory and transfer a bit more on bumpy roads.

Best mod I have some to my ranger highly recommend

Awesome - mine has the 18s from the black appearance package. I won’t change tires until stock ones wear out so was just curious.

I will add this picture. 1.8 on the front with 1 inch BSD shackles in the rear so I still have a noticeable rake(I will be towing regularly)

Did you notice it took some time to settle after install? Did that involve a slight drop in height?
