Bilstein B8 6112 Suspension Leveling Kits

A: No they do not. 

A: No they must be assembled using the factory top hat and rubber insulator. It’s best to purchase NEW top hats and associated hardware and not reuse the original parts. This will also make installation and swap easy.

A: No, you will assembled and set the ride height with adjustable spring seats.

A: Yes worth the $$$ I installed it on my 2020 RST 1500 and what  a difference it made in the ride quality my only regret is I wish I had pull the trigger on rather then I had bought the 2” block to level my truck but hated the ride. I bought this to improve the ride quality plus to level my truck I also replace the rear shocks with the bilstein 5160 and man the smoothest ride for a pickup truck 

A: Yes. I have them on my 1500 3.0.

A: I'd give Bilstein a call. They provided me excellent advice. Each truck is different. My 2020 Sierra 1500 front suspension bottomed out on a particular railroad crossing, whereas I hardly notice it with the new Bilstein setup.

A: The 6112 is a great ride on the street not harsh at all. You won’t be disappointed. 

A: I used them, so not sure if it’s needed, but the ride is awesome!! 

A: Not needed for the Bilstein B8 6112 Suspension Leveling Kit - PN: BIL47-293540

A: Short answer,  NO

A: 6112s give you a 2.5” lift with a shim you can add .5” more. It when you go above 3” where you may need Non OEM Upper Control Arms so that you can get the truest alignment possible with the additional camber adjustment that most aftermarket UCA allow. I myself have the Bilstein 6112 w/ one boss shim and Bilstein B8 UCA on my truck and Bilstein 5160 and Toytec schackels  3/1.5” lift and I love it

A: I have 2019 Tacoma  I found it not nessasary 

A: No mention of relocating the track bar in the instructions: https://www.4wheelparts.com/sku/Bilstein/standard/47-234413.pdf

A: Level lift no big deal.  Stick with proven brands.  Level lift suspension is a whole different animal.   Find your installer first to review all the components including wheels and tires for proper fit.   I use Icon and Bilstein

A: Hello, These leveling kits are awesome! BUT we would need more information. Generally though these Bilstein kits are fantastic. I wanna say you can't go wrong with these kits, these are upper tier kits. But for a solid recommendation please call us, 877-474-4821. Thanks for checking us out.

A: Unsure if original response posted...shocks keep wheels on the ground. Springs support additional sustained loads (pre load). Bilstein 200 lb front and 400 lb rears are forgiving for daily driving but stiffen up on obstacles. I have added 650 additional lbs to my rig w accessories. They (shocks and springs) have different duties, and they work together. TOTALLY worth it if you're gonna venture outside of pavement. Careful on the 700lb springs out there if you're not packing that kinda load as they ARE STIFF for daily driving. Have fun!!

A: As far as I understand, the 5100 series Shocks, although adjustable in set height, will not compensate for additional loads for long. Shocks keep the wheels intact with the ground (and rocks), but are not designed for, or helpful with supporting the pre load of winches, bumpers, armor, rooftop additions etc. Their (Bilstein) springs ARE designed for and do support those heavy pre loads. The B8s have set ratings and I have the 200lb on the front and 400lb on the rear. They work perfectly for the additional 650lbs I added to my rig and ride like the stock T4R as a daily driver but are stiff enough to allow some moderate Rock crawling. There ARE heavier duty springs (700lb additional) load springs out there, however, if you are NOT consistently having that type of load, they Will ride VERY stiff.

A: Yes, you need to remove the top hat from the old springs and reuse on the new springs  

A: Yes they do replace the stock springs, but you reuse the top mounts from the stock coilovers

A: Multiple snap-ring grooves in the body allow for different spring seat positions, providing 0-2.75 inches of front lift (depending on application).

A: Hey Chris, This kit will fit your 04 2WD Sequoia, and if you wanted to replace your rear shocks to match the kit Part# BIL24-276061 would be for a rear shock. The Bilstein shocks perform really good and look great and this kit isn't made for a heavy bumper or sag so you shouldn't run into it being too stiff. Thanks for reaching out!

A: Absolutely.  The extra lift on the front end puts the OEM UCA joints at a bad/weakened angle. Upgrading the UCAs is often an overlooked critical step.  I went with the Kryptonite UCAs on my Sierra and couldn’t be happier. 

A: You are referring to the ARB Deluxe Bar (Black) - PN: ARB3420210, no clearance issues.

A: Not sure what you asking  For me it lifts stock Tacoma I added heavier  Bilsltine springs to help with my added winch and bumper Total lift from these is 2.75”

A: From the Distribution Center to SF 4-5 business days.

A: Bilstein B8 6112 Series Suspension Kit - BIL47-243729 (2WD Models) | USE: Bilstein B8 6112 Series Suspension Kit - BIL47-260337 (4WD Models)

A: No upper control arms needed for the Bilstein B8 6112 Suspension Leveling Kit - 47-234413

A: Spring rate of coils will be similar to OEM. Struts have more dampening force to help control lifted vehicle.

A: from what i have heard from the forums, if you set the lift to the 2.8 inch setting you do have a chance of having oem ball joint failure. i replaced my oem upper control arm with zone upper control arm. if you want to use the 2.8 setting get an offroad/aftermarket upper control arm.

A: Don’t know. I had the dealer do the install for me. However, I can tell you that I had them adjusted at the highest level, and the stance looks great, and overall  excellent drive/handling…

A: No it does not.

A: Without looking up the price of new upper arms and springs, I would think that the 6112 is the better deal. With the 6112 you still have the flexibility of adjustments, it's a beefier shock, and it comes with its own springs. I've never had the 5100 shocks, but the 6112 set is awesome. 

A: Bilstein has not confirmed or approved fitment of shocks for the 2021 F150 model.

A: We do not have it in stock. It looks like we are expecting some in by the end of the month. Keep in mind that is an estimated date - not guaranteed.

A: 4.64” of travel

A: Hello Cory, I doubt your stock coils would be wide enough for these dampers. Please use provided springs. Thanks for checking us out. You can also call us, if you have questions as well 877-474-4821.

A: You re-use OEM

A: With all the variances in production and miles driven over a 12 year period, no two vehicles will have the same height adjustments. The best starting point is to measure the vehicle height before lifting and adjust the height 6” above the measurement taken. From there, you can adjust for left to right, or front to rear leveling.

A: These would do the job.

A: We would not recommend to stack level kits top of each other, We need a little more info about your setup to get you the correct parts. Please call our sales line Toll Free: 1-877-474-4821

A: No, we do not assemble products before they are shipped.

A: You would need to call our support line to give them the information on what you are looking to do. Please call Toll Free: 1-877-474-4821

A: This part provides 0-2.75 inches of front lift. Please call our tech support to see what other kits we have that will work for your application: Toll Free: 1-877-474-4821

A: Hi Larry, The Bilstein B8 6112 Suspension Leveling Kit does require use of some original factory parts. The top spring mount is re-used with the new shocks and coil springs included with this kit. Here is a link to the instructions for this kit that will explain further. https://productdesk.cart.bilsteinus.com/media/products/bilstein/E4-WM5-Y504A00_3.pdf The instructions will also be available on our website very soon

A: Hi James, This Bilstein 6112 Series Lift Kit has ride height adjustable shocks. There are 4 grooves on the body of the shock that you can adjust a snap ring to and then the spring seat will be at that level. Bilstein says that the range is from 0-2.75 inches of lift. If you check out these instructions it shows the levels https://www.4wheelparts.com/sku/Bilstein/standard/46-227287.pdf
