    Ok short story, 275/70/17 wrangled mtrs are waiting for me, however I need help with which route to go for lift, looking at headstrong 5100 kit just not sure what else I need to do. I'm only looking for minor lift but enough to level the truck.

    5100's are good for something like this. Best bet is to call headstrong and tell them what you want/looking for and they'll help you out.

    What about springs, can I stay stock or need upgraded? My wheeling is mostly hunting trails, and sketchy kayak shuttles in West Va., Va, Md, and Western Pa.

    Are you ok with cutting and trimming if the tire rubs?

    I have 5100's and I'm running eibach coils with them. My ride way better than stock and I got my 3" lift from the taller coils instead of preloading stock ones.

    If you're fine with trimming and just want a minor lift, I'd do 5100s, 884 coils and a 1.5" AAL. That would look great!
