    Yeah, I'd prefer a slight rake. As it stands, I figure it'll look funny if I'm hauling some weight in the rear.

    That was my problem with 5100s/3 leaf. I lost almost all my remaining rake and would flashed all the time. I haven't been flashed once since OME went in. And it rides about 10x better.

    Is yours 4x4? I ordered the 885s, I'm wondering if the front end would be too high

    I ran stock UCAs on 3'' lift no problems with only my caster out of spec.

    I tried to get by without UCA's but realized it wasn't feasible after having an alignment done. I have the before/after alignment specs in my build thread with stock UCA's and with the Desert Product UCA's.

    Caster should be around 2.5 right?

    Caster being out of spec doesn't seem like "no problems" to me. I'll bet your camber wasn't ideal either.
