    I’m looking into a bilstein 5100 all around lift kit paired with an add-a-leaf and I’m not sure what coil weight I should pair it with.

    As of right now, I have a body armor front bumper which weighs roughly 80 pounds and that is all the significant weight I have on the truck. I probably will eventually plan on sliders but nothing else after that would be a significant weight addition.

    Would I go for OME 887s or OME 888s for the coils to achieve roughly a 2” lift?

    Any feedback is appreciated!

    Would also depend on if you have single cab, extended cab, or double cab truck, wouldn't it? I've heard people experience different lift heights with the same model coil based on their truck

    I would think 886 or 888. The 887 are sold on the light load/Stock kit with stock bumpers.

    I would stay with stock coils. That’s what the bilsteins are designed for. If I wanted to go OME I would go with with their shocks and springs. Springs, dampers, and masses work together as a unit. If you start mixing and matching them, you better do your homework.
