Man. Thanks a MILLION for your recommendation. Just put these on and WOW what a difference! Truck is MUCH more planted and no more hitting the bump stops. It’s like a whole different truck. Took like an hour in my driveway with a jack and jack stands.

Mine is an 18 and I used to have the Bilstein 5100’s on mine as well before I lifted and did piggy back shocks but I took the boots off on mine, never having any issues.

I just used Bilstein 33-238319 on mine with 2.5” rear lift blocks and the fit no issues. It says they are good for 1.5” lift but we don’t have the factory 1.25” blocks anymore, so I hoped they would be good for up to 2.75” and they are. Noticeable improvement over factory ranchos.

Nice. Did you lev the truck too? Or just change out the shocks. Can you post up some pictures? I've been looking at bilsteibs too.

This is my setup. I love the kings and bajakit combo.

Looks good man! My truck goes in on the 10th for this setup plus their new stock width fabricated lower control arm and Kings all around. Did you get the compression adjuster shocks?

Thank you. No no adjusters. I had them in my 2017 and never adjusted them. So saved 400+- for something else

I used CST coil overs on the front.

Yes. The truck was leveled a month ago. 2" in the front and 2" blocks in the rear. The Billsteins added a bit of rake, but from what I understand, will settle. I actually like a little rake, so this doesn't bother me.
