    Got the 5100s and Eibachs on. I got exactly 2.5 inches out of them. The ride is great, I don't want to say stiff, but more planted or solid is more like it with a lot less nose dive or roll. I'm very happy with the combo.

    I only did a Procomp rear leveling block with the 5100s back there. May upgrade in the future depending if I get a trailer, or have grander ideas for tires etc.

    Just added toolbox and roof-rack to haul my fishing boat 100's of miles into the backwoods every week. Goodrich K02s, Bilstein 5100 front and back, no lift.
    Yeah it is pretty darn nice up here. Same with up at Field BC area, beautiful up there.

    Here we have tons of fishing lakes, hiking trails, and so much offroading spots you can go wherever you want and never see any other trucks. I have driven literally weeks through BC backroads, and never see even a single other truck. Love that.

    Plus all these nice small towns north and south of Kelowna. Summerland, Peachland, Osoyoos, Okanagan Falls, Penticton, Vernon, Armstrong, Sicamous, etc. All within 1.5 hour scenic drive of Kelowna. Still pretty quiet up here too, lived in Vancouver many years. No more big city for me, can't stand that stuff now. All I need is a few hundred miles of bush, truck, and boat. Nothing better. Kind of like this. :)

    I like to visit Vancouver, couldn't live there though. Pretty much anywhere else in B.C. I could live there. The Valley is beautiful!! Nice pic, nice rig.

    I'm on the bottom ring. I let the spring do the lift.

    Any one have issues with rear 5100’s and 2 inch vest of lift? looking at a similar set up but a little hesitant since 5100 rears are only rated for 1 inch lift.

    Can’t go wrong with the 5160s in the rear. That’s what I run with my lift and have zero issues. Little more expensive though than the standard 5100s but for me, it was worth the extra money. Hope this helps.

    Well I upgraded to 285/75R16. Had to do a little trimming on the front bumper and wheel well liner. So far no issues with cab mount but going to go ahead and chop it when I can find time.
