    Best of luck man! You'll love it. I strongly recommend the ECGS clamshell bushing as well

    Solid looking truck, if you ever find the paper with the measurements definitely post them.

    Pretty close to my setup, good choice! I did the OME 888s though. How have they turned out? Do you have the estimated lift after they settled?

    I haven't taken measurements yet. It's been about a week, so I'll do it this weekend

    How do you like the 888's? Im about to do basically this same set up but with the deaver single AAL instead and I have a steel front bumper that weighs 180lbs or something ridiculous and the 888 seems like it will compensate for that weight more. I'm trying to get around 2" of lift. Dont want to have to buy new UCA's...

    I really like the 888s. If I had more $, I would've bought some extended travel ICONS so I don't "top out" when going over "whoops". But they gave me the lift height I wanted, the shock is what is limiting them (due to the 5100s being pretty much stock compressed and extended lengths).

    Id say with the extra 180 pounds, you will have less of an issue. However, im not sure if that will bring the 888s down to a 2" lift. Mine are about 3-1/4", and with your extra weight, they might bring it down to 2.5". You will have to communicate with Marie with @HeadStrong Off-Road for your perfect setup. Also, with the deaver, if you want to stay level with a 2" in front, I would suggest removing the Overload Leaf when installing (I kept mine in due to the higher front end).

    Also, if you stick around 2", you should be fine without an UCA... probably 85% of 2" lifts dont have one.

    Thanks for the input! You have the 2nd gen 5100's though correct? With the 3rd gen ones I should get less height and be more around 2-2.25"? I've been talking with Marie, insanely helpful, they are just out of the office today. Thanks!

    What are some thoughts on throwing some .75" wheel spacers on my set up?

    I did some light offroading once. The set up performed nicely. Aside from the first two, this is the only pic I really have. Do you want to see a particular angle? I could take a few more.

    Full broadside if you don't mind.

    2nd or 3rd gen 5100s?

    I've got 885s with 2nd gen 5100s, progessive AAL going on a longbed so I'm curious if you're sitting level or have any rake. I want some rake but not my ass up in the air.

    I'm sitting with a very slight rake. I was very clear with the shop that installed it, that I did not want a California lean

    I actually had it installed by a shop. Rough Country makes a kit specific for our trucks

    Thanks, 2ng gens paired with the 885s should give me about 1.5 inches after everything settles. Rear with longbed and toolbox in tge back with about 100lbs of stuff should give me about the same. Sounds like I'll maintain the factory rake.

    Did you install a spacer on the driver's side to compensate for taco lean?
