Was looking for a mild but proper lift to my rig. Based on recommendations I reached out to Hotshot Off-road. Was not disappointed. Colton is extremely knowledgeable and responsive. He made sure what I ordered would meet my needs. Price also very competitive. Thank you.
Great customer service all around. They answered every question I had and my order was shipped out fast
Bought 6112s from Hotshot at a great price and they set them up for me so it was an easy install. The shipping was super fast. Thanks Colton. I'll be back.
DK makes them Hotshot sells them at a great price and quick shipping!
Great product and great customer service! Received them within 2 days of ordering and had them on my truck a few days later. Loving the look and ride! Will be a repeat customer for sure!
The lenses came in super quick and was exactly what I needed
I like to shop around and compare different companies and websites for the best deals. This is the second time I have ordered from HotShot and they delivered excellent service every time.
I got these to replace my V1"s whos lens cracked and let water in and eventually stopped working. They are super bright And fit in the Meso 3rd brake housing perfectly. Much better design than the V1's. Time will tell if the lenses hold up. The plastic seems stronger and thicker than the originals
It always bothered me that the fogs went off with your brights on. It works as advertised and I am no longer bothered! Super easy to install as well
First off, Hotshot is one of the most communicative and helpful companies I have ever dealt with. I would welcome the opportunity to give them repeat business and will recommend to others. Very impressed!
As far as the shocks go, on the street, they ride a lot like the 5100s I had on a different truck. I can't really comment of the difference/benefits of the 5100s vs the 6112/5160s, as I have not yet taken them offroad, nor have I towed with them on this particular truck, as I just got it.
I will say that, if you want to know if these make a difference, the answer is hell yes! Due to a backorder situation, I installed the rears only for a few weeks, as I couldn't take the factory shocks any more. The truck felt so awkward and discombobulated, having the front so soft and uncontrolled while the rears were so composed, it was hilarious...and shameful for the garbage stock shocks. After the front shocks were installed (2" setting) the truck felt very balanced and composed, with just a bit of rake, which is exactly what I wanted.
With how firm the Bilsteins ride on smaller bumps, I would suggest looking at shocks with progressive damping (like Fox) for street-only use, as they should be much more compliant around town. I offroad and tow regularly, so I prefer the digressive nature of the Bilsteins to keep the trailer in check, and am happy to compromise street comfort, knowing that small trailer movements will be well-controlled, and big hits will be absorbed with increasing levels of compliance; the last thing I would want is a wallowey feeling while towing.
So far, for my use case, these are a big thumbs up. Time will tell if they are worth the extra coin over the much cheaper 5100s. I was interested in finding out, so I gave them a chance.
Low + High + Fogs all on together is much more light output than stock. Especially if you have brighter LED fog lights. This will make your fogs always on when you turn on hi beams. In actual fog just use your low beams and fog lights. I was not aware that high beams would always trigger the fogs, but I am still happy with the product.
If Hotshot has what you want, or they can get it for you - look no further. I’ve probably bought from 30 different vendors and there is no comparison.
Easy install, Reduced body roll, Relieved suspension squat and all while keeping a comfortable ride. Would definitely buy again.
Not many miles on them yet. Extended length is about 3/4" shorter than my old shocks (5160s). Low speed going through the woods (no trail, literally in the woods, private property) these feel good and most of the time on road they are fine. Soft but controlled compression. Rebound sometimes odd at speed. A few spots on highway expansion joint ridges these feel like back of truck pops up like a donkey kick or something where I had never got that with my old shocks. Overall not bad i guess. They look really good and I suspect they will feel nice on the trail when I can get out there for a longer ride.
Arrived ready for install. Just remove old arms and put these in. Was nice that I didn't have to press in bushings or anything. They came with new nut and pin for the balljoint too. Only part reused was the main bolt and nut. I normally wouldn't go for gold color but these arms look really good on my truck. Movement seems to be pretty smooth. NOTE: Dirt King has wrong torque printed in instructions. I contacted DK to confirm that the nut on the mounting bolt should be same as oem spec at like 172ftlb, not 85.
Great fog lights! Very happy with this upgrade over stock halogens. Definitely recommend!
Quality is excellent, but the output from just two fogs was somewhat unimpressive. I added two driving lights, and with four SSC1s now, the output is okay though, admittedly, it is still less than I hoped for. Overall, it was an expensive project when a small light bar would probably have done the trick. I think they look cool, so there's that.
Quality is great. The connectors are huge, which can be tricky to work with in tight spaces.
This LED Upgrade Kit is as the title suggests, quality. The installation is intuitive and sellers communication both before and after the purchase was outstanding. The resulting light output vs halogen lamps exceeded my expectations. Buy with confidence!
Major upgrade over my previous SPC ball joints (which should probably be reserved for mall crawlers in 37”+ tires) - these uca's are built really sturdy, shops won’t have to mess with their adjustments, and the ball joints are easily serviceable and replaceable without needing an alignment. Add to that, Colton’s excellent service and product knowledge, I’m very happy with this purchase!
Faster than Amazon can get it to my doorstep….can’t ask for any better than that.
Ordered complete lift kit and shims for coil overs very happy with order and quality of service and brand name parts would highly recommend this company to anyone great owner and staff
