    For everyone who has added UCAs for lifts ranging between 2-2.5" did you do so out of necessity or an abundance of caution? I'm pretty much set on my lift and it definitely won't be more than 2.5" so I'm no the fence as far as UCAs go. Any feedback will be appreciated.

    I did mine out of caution due to recommendations here on TW. Cheaper to add them during lift install than to do it later. Less labor.

    Plus I got a deal on them since I ordered with my lift.

    Take it off, throw it in the garbage, and stay driving straight when a dog jumps out in front of your truck.

    I got a 65lb winch and an all pro front bumper... Would that cause the front to sag meaning not truly at 1.75 with 5100's?

    EDIT CAN SOMEONE LINK ME TO SOME 885's

    It's cool, so do I need only 2 885's just for the front or do I need two in the back as well?

    The front is the only place you will use coils. These will work with your Bilstein 5100s set at 0 and give approximately 2.5 inches of lift.

    The rear you will want to probably add a leaf spring. The rear suspension doesn't use coils.
