I already have the hbs 2.5" leveling spacers but my struts are shot. What would you guys do, buy the bilsteins and new strut mounts and lose .5" and sell my spacers or buy the monroe quick struts and add the spacers to it? Or maybe i could just buy the bilstein hd and keep the spacers. I like the way it sits now and im just not sure if it will be very noticeable losing .5".

 

Im really hoping its my struts making the noise. Ive inspected mostly everything no signs of damage or wear. Ive replaced the end links and added poly bushings but after doing so it only silenced it for about 2 months so i replaced the bushings again with no luck. Now when i manually bounce the front its like a rock i cant get it to bounce or move much at all and the rear seems to be in good shape.

 

Well after taking the end links off i took it for a drive and the noise was still there maybe even worse. Got back and was jumping on the bumper and i heard about where it was coming from. It's coming from the rf upper control arm bushings or the strut assembly. Any suggestions?

 

Well everything I'm about to say is my personal opinion but I would say ditch the spacers (not a fan of spacers, waste of money in my opinion) and get the Bilstein 5100 lift struts. Monroe is a lesser quality then Bilstein. I don't think you would notice half an inch but who knows. I would not combine the spacers and lift struts because then you will be nose high by about 2" until you raise the rear as well

 

Cool thats what im leaning toward. At the time i couldnt afford the 5100's new rims and tires plus alignment all at once so thats why the spacers are on there. Anyways would you recommend replacing the upper strut mounts? Btw thanks for the reply.

 

I'm not really familiar with your suspension as I only have a 2WD but if it looks like it needs to be replaced I would to be safe
