Another Bilstein 5100 question!

Hey All, Been on the site for awhile but this is my first post. Thanks in advance.. I have already used this site for a lot of other mods/help. Ok, 2014 DCSB 4x4, I recently put bilstein 5100's on front and back with the Wheelers 1.5" AAL in the rear. I set the fronts at the 2" setting on stock coils thinking that would give me a good "level" stance. My truck still has a slight rake to it (rear high about 1/2"- 3/4") my question is should I just bump up the fronts to the highest setting 2.5" or should I look into a set of OME coils and go back to the stock 0 setting. Do you think I would i get about the right lift in the front to level it out with the 1.5"AAL? Thanks!

 

I did 2.5” on stock TRD SPORT springs and with 1.5” AAL in the rear.

 

OP, did you decide on anything yet? I'm curious because I've got a 2014 DCSB and I'm thinking of leveling it out as well. I'm running stock right now.

Btw TegoTaco, you've got a gorgeous truck. I've spotted it several times throughout the forum. It's definitely an eye catcher.

 

OP leave the rake so when you actually use the truck as a truck, you arent all sagged out and bro leaned.

 

Dammm

looks great !!!!!!!!!!!

 

You may find that your rear settles that 1/2" My Wheelers 1.5 AAL settled from a little over 2" to about 1.5" a month or two later.

 

I agree with this. I hate bro lean, just about as much as the stupid new fad of putting huge skateboarded wheels on trucks with little tiny tires, neon lights in the wheel wells, and stickers on the windshield that say something in cursive like “skating while you hating”....makes my blood boil.

 

“Skating while you hatin’”...LOL

 

I plan on putting the 5100 on and keep at the 2 in setting on stock trd off road springs with nothing in the rear to lift and that should level mine off. The way it currently sits is the front is 2 in lower than rear. I don't tow with mine but use it off road so I'm not worried about it having the bro lean or Cali lean which I also dislike. This will get me by for the next 2 years or so until I can go balls out and do a full long travel lift =)

 

Tire size??? Truck looks great!
