Which Bilstein's

I've been looking on TopGun Customz website and I don't know which Bilsteins to order. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

wow! that's nice. I appreciate that. I can't decide I need an 1" or 2" to level it out. They have two different sets... They have the 0", 2" or the 1",2",3" set....

Get the ones with the three levels of adjustment that way you can be sure.

PS: .. is it the same price for the 0 - 2 and 1,2,3?

The ones I posted (on my truck) have 3 settings to where you can adjust the level from stock, 1" or the 2" that I have it set on.

Excellent! Thanks for the help. How are you liking everything? I am getting ready to order those right now so I wanted to see if you could fill me in. I have the 6" Pro-Comp to and Toyo M/Ts. How much do you sag in the rear? I have an aal in the back so I hoping it will level me out. How's the ride?

Look in my gallery. It is just about level. maybe .5 inch lower in the rear. I love the look and the ride!

Thanks I'd appreciate it. Maybe some measurements. How are your uca angles? What about the ride? You have yours set on 2"? Sorry for the questions your the only that has a setup almost identical.

Yes, mine is set on 2" Here is a pic of my CV angle. I did not take a UCA pic but the angle is similar to that of a truck with a 2" spacer. The CV angle is very mild.
