5100s help

I know there is probably a million threads on this, but maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I want to add a front lift to my truck, I have a double cab 2011 TX pro 4wd. I have blocks leftover from my Revtek spacer lift from my old truck, i dont want spacers on the front cause they suck. If i read it right, i can use 5100s with stock springs and achieve a mild lift correct? because that would be very cheap for me to lift my truck. Plus, downsouth motorsports gives discounts to TW memebers? Any help would be appreciated and and yelling at me for not finding it in the search function is to be expected. sorry.

Thanks alot TW, Josh

 

Correct, you can use 5100's to lift the front.

 

You sneaky quick bastard.

 

.... ouch.

 

but just to make sure, it can use the stock springs? correct chris4x4??

 

Not chris but yes, you can use the stock coils.

 

They are designed to be used with the stock/factory coil springs.

 

Or Eibach's

 

yes u can use with stock coils ...o,.85.1.75.2.5in of lift achievable

 

hey guys, another question, i have some 285/75/16 duratracs sitting in my basement, what would i need along with the 5100s to make those fit? and how bad would they rub? they rubbed horribly on my old truck

 

just ordered some 5100s for the front, wheelers 2 inch AAL for the rear, and some spidertrax spacers for the front to fit my duratracs.
Is supposed to arrive on tuesday, hopefully will install that week.

Ill post pics as soon as i can.

thanks for everyones help!

 

very nice and capable setup...enjoy it man.....on a side note what rear shocks did you get? you NEED them...you will destroy the stock rear shocks with 2in of lift

 

i didnt order any yet..... he said i would be fine for a while with the stock rear shocks, i can pick some up in december when i start working again.

I wont be doing any wheeling until then

 

Sounds like that will work fine. You will probably need some minor trimming. Just some plastic and maybe a tiny piece of your bumper on the inside corner. Your gonna love it!!

I have stock rear shocks with a 5th leaf (tsb + 1.5 AAL) and they are fine.

 

k just becareful because you can top out the stock shock when flexed and break or bend the piston..good luck man your gonna love it

 

I am not sure, but are you saying youre using a spacer lift and the 5100s? I heard someone say that its not a good idea to sure a spacer lift and a billy lift at the same time. Lemme go see what i read.

did you get a +1 for that wealth of knowledge or just come to complain about an over tread topic title ...pow pow !! bang bang !!!

 

just ordered mine too, 5100s allarround from dsm and 2" wheelers aal , shocks comin fri and qql on fri cant wait !
