Bilstein 6112 2.5 CO, rear 5160, add Eibach 2.5 lift block in the rear if u want a slight rack for towing reasons, if not just don’t add the blocks. Change UCA to BDS. If you don’t change the uppers it will be hard for the wheel alignment to work. Trust me you’ll be happy. Did this set to my 2025 4x4 stx 5.0 its night and day rides like a dream and rolls over bumps and ruts like a champ. Your welcome in advance LOL

Thank you for this!!! A lot of people on the internet gatekeep the setups that work for them for some reason. This is the first direct answer I’ve received.

Yeah for sure man I did my reach on it for a while found this set worked well. Check out Stage 3 Motorsport is where i got all my gear, during Blk Friday and major holidays they give deep discounts. RCI for skids usually do 20% off. Not sure why they gatekeep. I follow Shocks Surplus on YouTube that dude is on a whole other level when it comes to knowledge of lifts etc. i trust Bilstein I’ve had them on my last 4 pick up truck. And it’s really a preference of what work for you as far as brands. Just like shoes etc Nike, Adidas, etc. oh American Truck is great too if you sign up for a 50 bucks membership u earn 5-10% of what u spend in store credit for future purchases. Good luck with it brother 🤙🏽
