    I have a 2013 DC just looking for a 2" lift in the front I have Firstone Air bags on the rear.
    So I am considering 5100s on the corners and OME 884 springs. The 5100s will be set a 0.
    I do no off roading, all highway driving. My question is, will this combination maintain the same ride qualty or improve the ride quality?
    Will I have to make any other changes such as uca etc?

    Thanks in advance.

    That would be a good setup for what you want. should give you a good ride. I have billies with 885s love them and they don't break the bank. No need for ucas as you will never wheel it but you will need a 1/4" spacer for the driver side to account for taco lean but its cheap

    It will be stiffer if that's what you're looking for.

    Think that combo is gonna be just fine then.

    I don't have this set up but I've heard others speak of how this combo has improved their ride.

    I have a double cab long bed and I went with the 5100/885 combo and got 2 1/4 of an inch. Ride quality is better and truck aligned perfect.

    I have been rolling on the 5100/884 combo for 15,000 miles. I gained 2" up front and I do use a 1/4" poly spacer on the driver side. As stated above, the ride is firmer than stock, but 100% in a good way. Decent alignment is attainable with stock UCAs, but I am a perfectionist so I will be adding UCAs soon. Even at 2" lift I can't get my caster up where I want it without adding positive camber. The truck wants to wander slightly at 65+ and I also experience some bump steer. It really isn't bad at all. I have enjoyed all 15,000 miles it's been driven since February. However, I know UCAs will be the icing on the cake. Anyway, that has been my experience. Good luck!

    It is an older one that I bought off craigslist so I'm not 100% sure on the model, but I think it is the discontinued trackerII. I grabbed some cheap tracks from Proline Roof racks. Works like a dream.
