    There is no way the rear is stock, maybe TSB springs, but not the original 3 leaf pack. It is at least 1 inch higher than stock.

    I have 5100s just up front set at 1.75" and a completely stock rear. The front is ever so slightly higher than the rear.

    Yeah, I think you're right. I don't remember when I had the TSB done but after looking at that picture closer it was definitely before then.
