    All right all you taco heads out there, I need your recommendations!

    Just got done install toytec's BK0510 on my 06', 5100's up front and 1.5" in the back end. AAL install went great, perfect height for what u was looking for. Up front is, well..... Not looking forward to doing it again.:(

    She is sitting on the ground and I have 4.25" of lift in the front now. Used only the driver side lean shim, nothing on the passenger side. Went to buddies shop and put the springs on the second from the bottom c clip setting. The front is completely topped out on the suspension and is sitting way to high. The driver side upper a arm is hitting the coil. :confused::confused:Was looking for the 2.25-2.75", not 4". Jump on the front with three of us, no help. It is not right and need some thoughts. Going to tear it all apart and reset the struts on the bottom setting, but when we compressed the new springs, they sure are stiff.:eek:
