    For those of you that have riderites and have upgraded to 5100's, where did you set your front and rear. I run about 25 psi in my riderites. It sits up pretty high in the rear. Thanks

    Cheers

    FYI, rear 5100's are not adjustable. For the front, it's personal preference. Use a measuring tape to determine how much taller you want the front to sit vs. where it is now, then choose that setting on the front 5100's. You can even use a floor jack on the front jacking point to jack up the front to what you think would be your desired height and get a feel for what it would look like before setting up the 5100's.

    Thanks for the reply. Was not aware the rears were not adjustable. Thanks

    Cheers

    I set my fronts at 0.85 and run around 15psi. I've got about 1.5" lift over factory setup on the front and almost 2" on the rear with this setup, but i have a sport so the springs might be a little different than stock, i'm not certain.

    The TRD Sport and SR5 models use the same coils and leaf springs from the factory. If you had the suspension TSB completed, that would give you an extra leaf over stock though.
