Default Re: Bilstein 5100 Installed

Did anyone who did the 5100's do the diff drop? I have them installed on a CM with 20" wheels at the top setting and I haven't done the diff drop yet. Just curious as to what everyone else is doing?

I have them at the lowest setting and opted to not install the differential drop.

I do have a differential drop for-sale (not posted yet) that I purchased just-in-case.

I did the diff drop on mine. Cheap insurance. Very difficult to get to passenger side nut on top. It was quite a bit tougher than I anticipated it to be.

I have not install the diff drop also. I have mine set at the 2nd setting, but if I had it set at 3rd setting(2.5in) I would consider doing it. By looking at the cv's they don't look like there is any stress on them.
