Shock Upgrades that Keep Stock Ride Height?

[Reidt131]

I own a Big Bend Non-Sas that recently hit 60k miles and I'm looking at suspension upgrade options.

Ideally I'd like to keep near stock ride height, with only a 0.5" increase in the front to level the stance.

Can anyone confirm that Bilstein 5100s can be set to stock Non-Sas ride height? Or is there a slightly nicer option that would accomplish this goal?

I was originally looking at 6100s but they require Sas springs or a spring replacement with the 6150s. Either seem to result in a taller ride height.

My trail riding usually involves higher speeds (20-30mph) in sand and washboard roads. Lots of high frequency low intensity bumps, rarely any rocks or large bumps. Think more rally than rock crawl.

Thanks in advance!

5100's using the stock springs should pretty much do it.

The springs are really what are setting your ride height - the shocks just keep them from being too springy.

Nicer, Bilstein 8112's?
