Rebel Bilstein on big horn. Need advice.

[Hokie-ram]

Hi. I bought a set of OEM Rebel wheel take offs and the owner threw this in.

Is this for the front or the rear?
If I install this on my car would it give a 1 inch lift ?
I just want a 1 or 2 inch lift.

What are these worth if I want to sell it ?

Thank you in advance

They are front coil springs and should give you 1" of lift.

those are fronts.
they should give you 1" lift in the front

how much they are worth depends on how many miles and how much people are willing to pay for them.
I just sold my complete takeoffs with under 500 miles for like $250 or something. so... they ain't worth much.

Thank you for the replies everyone. If I install this on the front and get a 1" lift, do I need to do anything to compensate for the rear?

And what kind of tent are you carrying? I have an iKamper SkyCamp mini.

Unless you want to keep the factory rake, no need to install anything in the rear.

How do these ride compared to the OEM suspension on a Big Horn? Sounds like a decent way to get a little more level.

in the profile picture that's Inspired Overland Lightweight RTT at 87lb. That was the original version.
Since then they got the hardshell carbon fiber version that saves like 7lb or so and larger size options.

But I've gone full camper - Go Fast Camper

Weight is just about 100lb more than bed rack and my RTT setup, or comparable (or less than) many hardshell RTT offered on market right now.
the GFC weights at about 295lb or so for full size trucks (XL), and it's much better for me because now I have an enclosed space for gear storage (no need to worry about open bed and thieves), more usable space for gear storage (compared to bed rack and cover like many people run), and a space for me to just hangout, relax, change my pants while standing up, etc.

Much better than OEM which I personally think SUCKS! Much more planted and firmer, so less wallowing like a boat.

Did you do just the front, or front and rear? Probably still a little bit of rake if just doing the front. Probably works well for 33's.

I used Bilstein on my 2 4th Gens and Grand Cherokee. It depend on what setting you want as to lift or level the front end. You can run 33's stock. Yeah I wouldn't level with 33's. I like a slight rake anyways for my vehicles, just not factory rake. I would suggest do all 4 corners, so they all have the same valving and ride.

Ok, cool. I'll probably pickup a set of take offs.
