    standard or expo?

    all new leaf packs will be stiff at first, though the "bounce" of the leafs should be controlled by your shocks

    OME nitros... they made to handle the HD springs, that's your issue you don't have enough damping in those 5100s... man that front end is really cranked up... or is it the fenders make it look that way?

    Have the expos and yes longer brake lines and you will need 10" shocks, bc if you try to flex with your 8" shocks they are going to over extend and you'll max out your shocks which is no bueno

    Don't think so says its meant for 0-1" lift, you would have to call and ask if its an 8" shaft or a 10" shaft, I do know that fox makes a 10" one ill try to find the link
