Default Bildstien 5100

Just wanted to know if anyone are using these. Thinking about doing a 4" in the rear and a 3" up front, also want to get new 4" leaf springs (old ones look shot). I have the 5100's on my F-1 and love em, just sucks there so expensive. Also if I only run 3" in the front, do I need anything more than springs and the shocks. Thanks

you wont absolutly need any more. I would suggest track bar, although you can redrill on the axel end to fix the length.

for the bilsteins

as for the front you may need longer LCAs and have to redrill the trac-bar.....not positive but i think grand cherokee LCAs were slightly longer not sure which year though maybe someone can add to that
