Rancho or Bilstein

Its 2" but it will depend on the condition of your coils.

Where did you find that? I couldn't find anything on them other than the shock body is 2" in diameter. As far as lift I couldn't find anything.

 

Oh I just saw it.

 

Where are your pics summit?

Who has the best price on the Rancho quick lift set of 4, that qualifies for the rebate? If you read the fine print on the rebate, it says online auction sites like ebay don't qualify, yet some vendors there say theirs do. Official vendors maybe?

Thanks

I used amazon, because its actual vendors not auction. It was the best price for me. Came to $600 CDN after rebate(still waiting for) which is about $ 475 USD. I would guess rock auto and amazon are the best prices in the united states.

Get the 7000mt, so someone can write a report about them. Plus they're auto-adjusting and mono-tube design like the bilsteins. I read they were a little softer than 5100s but that was on a Jeep Forum. I have yet to find a review of the 7000mt strut for the 2014 sierra/silverado.

Too late, already ordered the 999901 and 99198s off Amazon. About $406 after the rebate. Gonna have to find another guinea pig!

 

Edit: Anybody added a 1/4" spacer lift like this to these to get a full 2.5"?

Just wanted to update on my ranchos. I originally had them at 3 in the front and 2 in rear because I wanted a nice soft ride. I have now worked my way up to 6 in the front and 5 in the rear and it still rides fairly soft, but has a lot more control and less body roll. I'm very pleased with them and the fact that they ride this nice with 2" of level.

 

Now I just need to decide on some tires because these stock wranglers are horrible. I swear they're almost too small for this big of a vehicle. This is most likely what causes the hard ride over things like expansion joints for most people.

ya I love these over a leveling kit. I'm now at 8 in the front and 6 in the rear. It feels more like a truck and not a sissy car. I bought a truck cause I wanted it to ride like a truck. Rancho calls 8 in the front and 6 in the rear sport setting. I have 305 50 20 and it rides awesome
