d25 or Trex springs?

[XcumminsX]

Ok i plan on either going with the d25's or the t-rex springs... Gonna go with the bilsteins and still not sure what to do w/ the rear of the truck. . I dont want a spacer and i dont want add-a-leafs unless people can tell me some good things about them. Squeeks and other noises will not be tolerated by me ...



what do you all say?

springs

I have the d25's in mine you have seen the pics of mine I believe. The T rex is great but it is spendy! My truck is just about the right stance with just the springs. My only rear mod is to move the third spacer from on top of main pack to underneath(mine has the factory overloadswith the third spacer) it gained me slightly more than 1/2" in the back but I did it to raise my rear hich up slightly.

I have 2 inch tough country spacers on mine and it sits perfectly level. and keep the factory ride. the d25's are nice but do not always lift the amount the advertise. I have seen some d25's only give about an inch, inch and a half of lift.

I called t rex wednesday to order my leveling kit. It comes with bilsteins and I also got my choice of standard t rex springs or the HD springs for guys with heavy aftermarket bumpers/plows and the kit also comes with the beefier stud rings too. BTW absolutly wonderful people to deal with!

You can't go wrong with the T-REX stuff. High quality and excellent service. I've been running it for a year on my truck and can't say enough good things about it. I have the King system with the mini leaf pack in the rear. I've had over 3000 pounds of decomposed granite in the bed and the mini leafs hold just fine. I was a skeptic about the mini leafs in the rear because I have a camper on my truck and actually didn't install them initially. Let me just say that I am way glad I made the decision to add them. It makes all the difference in the world.

Never heard of T-Rex. What is the kit composed of exactly? What are the goals? Do they have a url?



Thanks,

Does the package you got include rear shocks as well? Seems like a good deal for $560 if it does.

I Had the t-rex leveler installed finally #ad
It Came out very nice. Measured truck all around and amazingly the truck sits exaclty level. In my case, Not even a 1/4 inch variance anywhere, front or back. The new coils are especially awesome. Very strong and heavy. #ad
Combined with the new bilsteins that came with the kit, the ride is now better, especially over potholes and speed bumps. #ad

The package is 2 Springs, 2 front bilsteins (5100's?) and 2 beefier stud rings for the shocks.



Kent from t-rex also recommends daystar 3. 5" bumpstops if you wanna go the extra mile. They are part number KU09022

The T-Rex system seems to be a very good one, I have read several reviews in Off Road magazines and all where very positive. I just installed all new 5150 Bilstein's and dual shock brackets and I'm considering removing everything and going with one of their complete systems, just waiting for them to get back with me. The front leveling system they have is much better then anything Skyjacker ever thought of or using a spacer. The extra money the T-Rex system cost is money well spent in my mind.
