Yeah, that's what I hear too. It's kind of hit or miss at 2.5" on the 5100s. What springs are you running, stock? Do you have anything out back or still stock TSB? How does this all ride?

 

No Longmont, we went into boulder, well pearl street, a few nights. i just looked it up and saw its near south boulder and would have to pretty much Destry boulder to make it up there. Still that is pretty crazy.

I love when people ask me from outta state, "how do u deal with the earthquakes!?" uhm we rarely have tehm and im right on one of the most crazy faults. i dont think ive felt one in over 2 years.

 

Yeah there's no way it wouldve made it to longmont.

 

did it die down over night? or is it getting worse? and ya thats good.

 

Well it hopped the ridge and its really windy, thats not good. But it isnt really threatening anything.

 

Spending money where it counts, the first time, pays off. No one likes to spend more money to upgrade down the road.

Also $900 for the full lift isn't bad at all, and it sounds like it will last you 5+ years.

 

So the list came out for the job I tested for. I did pretty well still don't have it In the bag so send some good vibes my way peeps.

 

this thing is bad ass!!!!

I agree with you, that kit would be the best option, its what im running on my truck and am very pleased with the results and ride quality.

 

OK. Everyone has a preference. My experience so far was when my truck measured perfectly level it looked from some angles to be ass sagging. Then I changed some things and ended up with 1/2" higher in back. That looked better but still looked ass sagged from a couple of angles. Now with the shackle flip on I have 1 inch difference no more ass sagging look.

I hear ya. I'm just trying to find the most cost effective way to get another 2-2.5" of lift up front w/o sacrificing the factory ride quality & off road capabilities. I really don't need to spend a fortune on components that will likely never see their potential tested.

 

When I had mine before I added the eibachs I had them at 2.5 did not like it and went to 1.75 with the aal then a month or do later added the eibachs for the lift.

 

OME then is where I would put my money. Solid ride and very capable. Yes $ up front but if you are not off roading it very much you will get longer life out of the shocks and springs.

Spending a fortune is Icon or full coil overs up front.

 

positive vibes shifted to you now. Had a friend in surgery this morning so the vibes were her way but she is home resting now so I will send them to you.

 

Thanks man I need them! I'll send some your friends way as well.

 

You guys stay safe out there. I too live in wildfire country so it's terrifying and sickening to see what you guys are going through.

Edit: Here's a great link that someone posted in the earth thread that has field reports on fire containment directly from those fighting. So if anyone here's home is in harms way, this will have the latest info available.
