Has anyone found a supplier for the 6112's that will install the springs on the struts for a reasonable fee before shipping?

Is that little flesh colored bump stop visible after installation? Why didn't they make it black?

What cap do you have on your bed. Do you have the rearview mirror camera and if so, does it block it?

It's a smartcap sport. No rearview camera, I just have the base off road. It does partially block the analog rearview mirror, say the bottom half of it. There is a new camera on the market that attaches to the cap and wires into the camera system though.

That's one my biggest (other than the price) sticking point on a bed cap. This is one of the few that has the window for the rear-view camera. Now if I could only stumble upon $4000+ dollars to buy one! :D

Roughly how much weight are you carrying at the rear axle compared to stock? I have an off road long bed and installed the Dobinsons 820 and 817 with all stock shocks and the rear is super raked without any modifications to the front. Just put in the order for the Bilstein 6112/6110 yesterday after seeing this post.

Hard to say. I think the cap is 225lb. I have a JL tw3 subwoofer and enclosure in the rear seat that probably weighs 60lb, rock rails, skid plates, random light stuff in the bed. Hard to say how much of that is rear biased, how much center bias leans on the rear, etc.

I will say, the rear is tall. Sending it over speed bumps at speed, the rear feels like its slightly lacking in travel. Im wondering if new rear links are a good idea.

They're on! 6112 front coilovers, 6100 rear struts with Dobinson 817 springs.

Worth every penny. Transformed the truck from "I want to sell this piece of shit" to something I actually love driving

What kind of lead time did you have for the 817 springs? I ordered 819s through ShockSurplus when I ordered the OME MT64s and that was 3+ weeks ago. I've gotten the suspension, rear links, UCAs and bump stops but no word on the springs. I'm wondering if this is a Dobinsons issue since the rear links came directly from them 10 days after the shocks/UCA/bumps, that came directly from ShockSurplus.

Looks great!!

I went back and forth on the 6112/6100 vs MT64 for about 6 weeks before I decided to go the OME way.

Did you ever get your order resolved with Shock Surplus? I am having an absolute nightmare with them. I ordered a set is front/rear 6112's, they sent me someone else's order, I paid to have the installed on the 1'st clip, they came on the 6th. The rear shocks were not included in the shipment(they sent me someone else's order per the wrong order number on the box, I'm assuming they only ordered fronts). After several emails, they finally acknowledged that they owed me the other half of my order, but they said the shocks were on backorder (their website showed they were in stock). Finally they ship the shocks.... to the wrong address on the other side of the country. I contacted them to let them know that the tracking number showed the wrong address, did they stop the shipment? Nope. I got the notification that my package was delivered today to some dude named Sean on the other side of the country. Dealing with Shock Surplus has been a comedy of errors. I am probably 20 emails deep and over a month in and I have no idea if my order will ever get fixed.

Hopefully you had a better experience and finally got your springs.
