    Default Gains from bilstein 5100s?

    I was thinking about the 5100 leveling shocks. will they get me better suspension or are they basically just for the lift? I dont do heavy offroading, maybe just light stuff...

    both. read over the entire thread for the details. the bottom line is you get a little more travel, better valving, and you can lift it if you want.

    I read that entire thread and can't find any feedback from anyone that installed them on a Dcab. I PM'ed the few people that were talking about it and haven't gotten a responce. Anyone have any feedback on using these on a Dcab?

    Thanks,

    Chris

    chris - there isn't much feedback available yet as these were released, then recalled and are finally being released again. i will review these from an AC's perspective and maybe if my girl likes them, we'll throw a set on her DC. more info should be available as people start receiving their sets!
