    I just installed 5100s at 0 clip with 887 spring on my TRD OR 4x4 over the weekend and gave me 2.5" lift front and 1.5" on the rear with Wheelers 3 AAL without the Load leaf. The stock shocks are skinny compare to 5100 and the ride is bit stiffer than stock but I love the stand.

    I was looking on the jet website. Did you have the part numbers for the 5100's?

    Another place that I have had a good personal experience with is Rhino Lining SD off Kearny Mesa. When going south on the 163 it's on the left just past the 52.

    Thanks @619HiluxLover ! But I pulled my trigger before I saw your post! I'm getting mine done next Tuesday @ SoCal Suspension in El Cajon. Will take pics @ the shop and post it. If your near by next Tuesday, swing on by! My appointment is at 8:30 so install should be done around noonish.

    5100's all the way around, front set @ .85. Wheels and tires later on, and if that's not enuff thinking Eibach or OME front coils with an AAL in the rear! Right now money is tight so little by little for the build!

    What are your plans?!

    I'm going with 5100's all around as well! Not sure to set at .85 or 1.75. Was initially gonna do 2" blocks in the rear but owner at TruckShop advised to put Deaver leafs springs (mini pack) instead. Adding wheel spacers to be able to fit 285 70 17s on my stock wheels. Hoping to do it next week :) Will definitely share pics afterwards!

    Dude, you HAVE to go to jet.com and get them there...less than $300 for both front and rear shocks. Make sure you use the 15NOW code as well. In regards to the Deavers, they about $230 or so depending on where you can get them

    Did you have to get UCA's or anything to help with alignment? I thought I read that anything around 2.5 messes with it..Also what size KO2's you running? Thanks!

    I have ko2 265x70x17 on my stock rims. I was thinking about 5100's in the middle setting. Like others it's coming a little at a time.

    I'm been driving around for few days to get it seattle down before alignment. We will find out soon if I need an UCA or not but I doubt I need it since there are still lot of room left on the suspension travel. I'll keep you updated. Tires are 265s.

    Do you lose much flexing during some offroading with the sumosprings?
