Exclamation bilstein,camburg's,and coilovers?

Does anybody have the camburg upper a arms, I am looking at them does anybody have/had them? If so any feedback about them. I took my truck to ford to get serviced and they said my ball joint was wearing so i was looking into camburg's. Another thing is i was wondering about the Bilstein 5100s as some replacement shocks, Also i have heard that you can get 2" out of them but would it matter if you have spacers and also what about coilovers would i need to get some new ones?

I meant JohnWade's but for some reason I thought you had a lowered old body style. You got any better pics?

Sorry for thread hijack.

i don't think you can go wrong with the camburg/bilstein setup. nice stuff, for sure, and race proven.

I have the Camburg's with the Dirt Logic coilovers cranked 2". I had the stock UCA's until they wore out and then I put the Camburg's on. The change it made in the way the truck rides was amazing. It's a lot more cushiony I guess you could say and I love it!

so with the DL coilover you get an extra 2" what about in the back? how did you even it out? and if i got camburg's and decided to get some coil overs would i keep the spacer or get rid of it?
