Bilstein B8 5112 - Suspension Leveling Kit 2”.. worth the money

Looks like it comes with coils and shocks for front.

I have heard many good reviews from people on the Forums.

Allowance for larger wheel is nice, however for traditional unloaded hwy miles I feel the improvement is negligible. The huge improvement coming from off-road side which I would say has saved my head from a few dingers.

What about the thuren 2” that comes with coils and Bilstein 5100’s

Thuren coils at height of your choice and a pair of Bilstein 24-185776 shocks.

Good Combination

That's what I got (plus the track bar) and am very happy with it.

I have this kit on my 21 3500 with a thuren track bar. Kit is nice and rides great. Truck has about a 1/2"-3/4" rake still but I have a heavy cattle bumper on it.

I have that level, no sway bar and a king stabilizer on 37”s and love it.

Anyone install the Thuren 0.5" Bilstein 5100 Front Leveling Kit? I want softer coils upfront to help with the ride when unloaded, but not too much front leveling, as I primarily use my truck to haul a slide-in camper. Don't want to mess too much with the height and overall weight balance when the camper is loaded on the bed.

Yes. I did.

worth it?

worth it?

I found a deal on a second hand set (wasn't enough lift for the guy) so...yes, it was worth the money and effort.

Gained about 1" of travel, even on my 3500 megacab. Spring rate is ~25% lower than stock so certainly rides better.

You'll need shocks with more travel but same compressed length.

I have the .5's with stock shocks and ride is better with no appreciable front lift, also have the Thuren swaybar.
