Experience with bilstein 5100s fx4 owners

Just ordered new BFGs 33" for 2004 fx4, looking to lift it 2 inches in front maybe 1in rear but done the right way, looking hard at these 5100s but reading mixed reviews. Any experiences

275/70/18 a/t. Looking for just a moderate lift or else would have gone 305s. Also reading good things about the ranchos

BFG A/T KOs are good tires. They should clear just fine. Make sure your speedo is re-calibrated to run the new size.

I have an STX, but I am running the Bilstein 5100's on my truck. I have to say that I like them.

Thanks. One thing that will set us apart is our RS9000 which is an adjustable shock. With a turn of the **** you can go from a softer ride to a firmer ride if you tow. Also our 90 day guarantee, if you aren't happy in the first 90 days return it for a refund. Good luck in your choice!
