Team, reviving an old thread.
Now that most have had their Bilstein setup in for a significant period of time, how are you finding it? Im looking to upgrade the suspension on my lux in the near future and am seriously laying out the extra $ for some billies.
My ute has the following
ARB deluxe steel bar with winch, dual batteries, alloy tray, 70L under tray water tank (soon to be fitted).
Aiming for a 50mm lift. Ute is my daily driver and usually unladen. Setting up for touring and beach use.
From the 4WD Driect website and from talking to Lovells this is the kit im thinking of putting together.
http://www.4wddirect.com.au/cgi-bin/sho ... tegory=TH4Bilstein front struts $495
Bilstein rear shocks $400
Lovells HD Raised front springs TL-118HD $165 (wire dia 20mm, rate 984 lb/in - what Lovells reccomended)
Lovells HD raised rear leaves TL-60HD $630 (again, what Lovells reccomended) includes bush kit and rear brake bias kit
Greasable shackles $70
TOTAL $1765 (includes shipping)
I would appreciate the groups experiences and wisdom.
Cheers
Dave
