    So u have 5" in the rear?? How does your front set level with the rear, with the lift components you have in the front?
    Or have your leafs sagged so much that you're only getting a couple inches of lift with 5" of components?

    It's recommended, helps a little but for $20 or so I say it's worth it

    I was planning on getting eibach springs down the road cause after all the parts I purchased I couldn't afford the springs. So I bought billy 5100s up front with stock heavy duty coil spring. I'm setting it at 2 inchs. When I do get the eibachs will it mess up the shock setting it back to zero?

    The springs? Yes they will have to be set at 0" to install correctly.

    Ya I understand it will have to be at 0. But do you think it will mess up the shock going from 2 inchs to 0 inchs

    No, it's made to be adjustable.

    Just ordered eibachs from wheelers!!! They said it was the last pair in stock!! I've got new 5100s waiting at home with toytec add a leaf. I can't wait to get this setup on. I just gotta wait for warmer weather to do my undercoat before lift goes in.

    I haven't ordered a leaf pack, but extended steel brake line and a diff drop would be helpful

    I didn't know if I needed new bushings if I got a Old Man Emu leaf pack or what else I needed so I could have all new parts down there.

    Pretty sure the dakar springs will come with new bushings. Might be rubber tho, instead on poly. You might want to put new frame side shackle bushings if you are staying with the OEM shackles.
