5100's/TSB

I'm going to call tomorrow and see if the dealer will perform the rear leaf TSB, and if they will, I'm going to get Billy 5100's up front and set them at 1.75" or .85", whichever will level...Anyways, I have searched about the lean, and stuff, does every lift have this Taco lean? I've never noticed it, do I need the 1/4 spacer to level the lean out? Or may I not need it? And also, I don't need UCA's by setting the 5100s at 1.75" or .85 will I? How will my alignment be...All this more searching about the lean and alignment issues are making me second guess getting this lift done...Oh, and about how many inches will the total lift be (from stock height) after the 5100s and tsb


Thanks. I did use search and read, but couldn't find my exact questions/concerns.

 

Lean: wouldn't hurt to get the driver side spacer. I'd assume all tacos have the same lean beings the battery, gas tank, and driver are all on the drivers side.

Ucas- you'll be fine without new ucas. You don't REALLY need to worry about those till you lift around 3 inches. Alignment should be no prob at .85 or 1.75 setting.

Pretty sure the tsb gives 1 inchish of lift. You'll get either .85 or 1.75 inches of lift up front, which either you choose. You should be able to find pictures of trucks at both settings.

You really shouldn't hafta worry about many issues, probably none at all with that mild of a lift. It's definitaly worth it for the look your truck will obtain!

 

Yeah I have like 2" Tuff Country spacer that leveled the front with the rear, but my rear rides likes crap an sags with weight in the bed, so I'm gonna get the TSB Leafs(hopefully) then get Bilstein's to level it again, getting rid of the spacer. But I shouldn't have to worry about any problems really? I could always get the setup all done, then if there is bad Taco lean I could order the 1/4 plate and get it installed, could I not?

 

Good plan!

Of course you can always do that. Get your 5100's on there. Get an alignment. See how it looks. And decide then if you want the small spacer or not.

 

Alright great! Thanks a lot guys for the reassurance, I was starting to worry myself!
