    2' spacer lift 285/70/17 nitto trail grapplers m/t
    I'm going to redo my front lift. On my dc. I've been going back and forth on what to do. I'm leaning towards ome 880s on billi's adjusted to 1.25. Should I go with those or 881. Or even would the better option be the eibachs.

    Don't do 880s and preload them. Ride like shit.

    881 will settle to about 2'' of lift. and ride nice

    Do you have any added weight on the front? Bumper, winch, skids?

    Eibachs give too much lift with no added weight. 2.7L or 3.4L?

    881s on 5100s @bottom clip should give you 2.5-3" lift. You don't want more than that.

    Put the 5100 on stock or 1.25?..

    I've also had a thought since I have the 2' strut spacers how adding the 5100s and set on 1.25 with stock coils. You would think the factory coils would be settled enough to not be excessive lift height

    Don't get Eibachs for the love of god. Especially if you're a 2.7 and no weight.

    Anything is going to be a bit much without some front weight up there. Id stick with 881s and maybe precompress them a tad. But thats it.

    Yes they are far too stiff for a truck with no armor. Plus he's a 2.7l.

    Dont do strut spacers. You want a full 3" lift your gona have to deal with a firmer ride. I honestly think youl be ok with the eibachs having the extra weight of a dbl cab to make up for the 2.7.
