    I just installed my 5100s today. Set them on the .85 setting,real easy to do. Haven't had a chance to drive it yet,been pouring rain all day.

    I'll find out tomorrow for sure. It definitely leveled out the truck. I didn't bother with anything in the rear,I don't haul much or tow anything.

    My set up is fairly minor in lift also. Wanted to stay close to stock but account for the sag with cap and bed mat on a lb. I went with 5100s' set at .85 in front, and out back I got a set of tsb springs and added a 1.5" Wheelers' progressive aal. No overload. Ride is very comfortable.

    Yup,everything came apart real easy. I did pull the LCA bolts out and put never seize on them. If you have some mechanical skill and decent tools this job is easy.

    Originally installed Timbrens but added an extra leaf giving me two inches and extra 700# of capacity spending ~750$. Nothing special, took it to a local suspension shop that catered to my need. I have a Leer cap packed with junk and tow a 2500# travel trailer.
