    I have a 3 inch lift from rough country. With the front blocks. Can I also add bilstein adjustable struts?

    I guess technically you could although I wouldn't and I know a lot of people are going to give this thread negative attention because they generally don't like front strut spacer lifts

    You could, but if it's a 4x4, keep in mind that no matter how you lift the front end, you still have to make sure your angles aren't too extreme in the front. I.e., don't max out the lift on the 5100s and use the spacer, you'll destroy your cv shafts

    It's just a 2 wheel drive. I'm just wondering cause I know RC offers struts for the lift for a extra 200 just price shopping and trying to figure out if I HAVE to ONLY use RC struts

    Have links? I seriously doubt you can only use theirs. Bilsteins would definitely be the best bang for your buck. Or lift spindles, since it's a 2wd. Although, I don't know a lot about those.
