Christmas came early! NNBS upgrade soon.View attachment 70622

As stupid as this may sound do you have any part numbers I'm thinking about replicating that set up.

Just ordered a full set if KYB's g- force for the Hoe. Handled like a drunken monkey!

I heard a lot of good things about those shocks

What are the g force shocks? I can't seem to find them.

Put on non-z71 rear springs. Now I need to find someone to buy Tony's Belltech front and rear kit from me. It'll make a great X-mas present!

I am interested, sent you a PM...is this the 3/5-6?

Sorry, they're excel g. They might've been the g force and renamed. The info is on the site. I'll get the link.

It explains on the site somewhere what the shocks we're called before the name change, can't find it right now. I think the only real difference is now they're just painted black, which replicates an OEM look, which I like.

Ok thanks Tonyrodz

I'd like to know what your suspension set up looks like, cause your truck sits almost exactly how I want mine to.

My suspension is an made up of these aftermarket parts (Front to Back)

3" spindle
3" Amazon keys
Moog UCAs
Moog tie rods
Moog LCA ball joints
Cognito Front Sway Bar endlinks (HD)

Maxtrac Rear 2" Coil
Supreme suspension 2" Coil Spacer
Supreme supension 2" wheel spacer (Rear only)
Sphon Track Bar
TJ Warrior Sway Bar endlinks

Bilstein 5100s all the way around

I might be forgetting something, I am not sure, I think all in including install I'm in it for 2.5k, but that is with a more or less complete rebuild of the Front end and half way with the rear. Rides smoothish, can't wait for the 5100s to break in a little more, if they don't I might switch to rancho or something a little more "Squishy" since this truck is my DD as well.

I put the 5100's on my truck just a month or two ago, in prep for a lift in the future, and because I wanted something to stiffen it up a bit. It was a little harsh for a while, but I like stiffer shocks, especially in such a heavy vehicle. Then I changed wheels and tires, and now it rides totally different. It's smooth and soft as can be, but feels stiff enough that it doesnt wander on the road.

I'm hoping that since I'm starting with the Z71 springs, it won't be hard for me to do most of the other stuff, although I may end up keeping the rake for when I haul/tow, so the car doesn't point skyward.

Thanks for the info!
