Hey Guys, just wanted to let yall know My Bilstein 5100's came in today and will be Putting it all together this weekend with NEW - Ball Joints (Upper A-arms and Lower Joints), Tie Rod ends, 2.5'' Rear Block, and the Bilstiens. Yes this is the same guy who is stacking his 2.5'' Leveling Spacer with 1'' setting on Bilstien 5100's for a total of 3.5'' of lift. I will be taking pictures on Downward travel, Coils and A-Arms space in between, Ball Joint Flex @ Full extension and Normal, and Pictures after Alignment. Will let you know how everything goes
If it does not work then I will place the shocks back to stock settings and say You Told Me so!

 

Good luck with the 3.5" up front. I dont even think you will get the ball joint into the knuckle. It was hard enough to get the ball joint in the knuckle with just a 2.5" level.

But if you do get it in, have fun replacing the ball joints ever couple months.

I am looking forward to the pics.

 

Looking forward to pics of this, not sure why you still want to try this but it's your truck so go for it man.

 

True, It should be fine! I can Just put a Jack under the Lower control Arm and Get a long Screw driver to place in one of the coils and on top of the Upper A-arm and Pry down to get the Knuckle to the bolt!
