    Right now im on stock coils with the 5100's set at 2.5". I was looking at a set of ome 880 coils for sale for $80 shipped and was wondering if itd be worth the $80 + $40 coil swap to do it? Id be setting the billys in the middle setting with the 880s. Would i feel a big difference or not really?

    5100's all the way around, OME 880's and AAL, BF's 265/75R16. Switched beds from Stepside to Fleetside
    I'm not sure what the difference would be, but I'm running 880's with billies at the middle. I like the ride, no issues.

    I have 880's with the 5100's at 0 setting. The ride is much better than stock, firmer but more controlled feeling.

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    A difference? Yes, but depending on your budget, probably wouldnt be worth the swap and $$$. For $120 you could probably pick up some use Eibach coils which will give you a bit taller lift and much more flex.
