    I have 5100’s that support I think 3 inches of lift. I’ve yet to max them out. The all pro leaf pack came with a brake line extension

    Edit: I have the 1.5” to 2.5” 5100’s. You can find them on suspension connection

    curious as to what the travel and lift support of the nitro chargers is. if people are running them with dakars and AAL it must be more than the 5100s

    What are regular 5100s good for lift wise? I didn’t realize there was two separate sets for lift and non lift

    I think there’s a 0-1” lift set and a 1.5”-2.5” lift set. Emphasis on “I think”

    im seeing the listed lift heights for the expedition pack as 3" +1" when unloaded, but no info on the standard pack. im assuming its the same 3" but unloaded. does that sound accurate?

    Sounds right. The standard pack should give you 3" unloaded.

    Be aware though that new leaf packs usually sit higher at first while they settle in...after they settle they should be at the advertised height

    @BartMaster1234 where's that pic of your truck with fresh All Pro leafs...his ass end was sky high lol

    ah, nice. should be perfect with my 882s.

    Yeah when i first put on my rear AALs and 881s (first setup) it was crazy how much lift it gave me. I have NO idea why they are advertised as 1.5" lifts
