Get Bilsteins or actual coilovers for that price Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1

Awesome Black Friday deals coming Sent from above I’m trying to take advantage of this, but can’t get ahold of CST via email, phone, or facebook messenger. I’d like to get their front leveling coilovers and upper control arms, but don’t see any matching rear shocks on their site. Does anyone know if they offer a basic Dirt Series 2.0 shock non-resi to replace my stock Ranchos? Something exactly like the FOX 2.0 and Icon 2.0 non-resi shocks. The closest part number I could find on their site is the CSR-5530 but that is listed for the new 2019s only. On a side note, MRT and SDHQ have been very responsive to questions about other setups that I am pricing out. Right now I am leaning towards the Icon stage 1 and will add their delta joint UCAs.

They do have the shocks you want.
outbackpaul Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 The dealer had put on 22s. I had them changed to 18s. I also had Bilstein 5100s installed at the highest setting and also replaced the shocks in the back with Bilstein. I love the stiffer ride. I don't bounce all over the place now when I hit a bump.
Morenar Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 Can anyone post a picture of what their ball joints look like with the 2in Rough Country leveling kit? I need to compare them to mine.
SouthpawHD Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 I'm sure this has been asked, but I'm lost and a little confused yet. For my 2018 Sierra 1500, I am going to add GY DuraTracs, 275/60/20 (a 33" tire) and a 1.5"-2.0" front level kit (Rough Country). Do I need to do anything with the UCA?

I don't see the ball joint as crushed as with a Rough country 2in Kit. Edited November 28, 2018 by Morenar mispelling

Subtle difference but just enough to fix the problem. Before and after: I love your wheel and tire choice. That looks great. Very old school and cool. Any other pictures?

I asked this question above, but I am also contemplating going 285/55/20 instead of the 60 tire to avoid any potential rubbing. That tire is about a 32" tall tire, so only 1" taller than stock. Would that 285/55 be a better option to avoid rubbing and potential UCA issues? I really do not want to get into something and then have to throw a bunch more money trying to fix it because it was the wrong tire choice. Edited November 29, 2018 by SouthpawHD
