2.5" Bilstein 5100 in front, ? in the rear

No compressor needed for air bags if you don't want it. Can always save up and add the compressor later. Just check the psi at the gas station every 5-10 fill ups. That's what I do. After 20 (roughly 6k miles) fill ups they went from 30 psi down to 10psi, this is normal. I was responsible for bringing the kegs to a wedding so I filled em up to 50psi from 10 and the rig lifted over 2 inches in the rear in about 5 seconds. Best investment ever. I may add the compressor at some point but it's not necessary.

 

They fill up using the same valves as your tires so it's convenient. I had my valves installed to come through two of the holes that hold my rear license plate. Super easy to maintain.

Can't see

 

Ordered my parts yesterday from Wheeler's , should be here Friday , clock is ticking .. still debating between 1.75 and 2.5

 

I had a Cherokee a while back that I used to tow a trailer with a lot. It always sagged the back. I got the ride rite system with the onboard compressor and was really happy with it. I plan on putting it on the taco along with 5100's and OME 884's when I get the coin to do it all at once.

 

I will surely look into it... Just cautious due to it not being very common here

 

Just ordered the same, 5100 fronts 2" aal on the rear. Still debating but might set it at 1.75

 

1.75 is probably best if that's how much lift you want. Are you looking to keep rake or to level?

 

I think rake that is close to level.

 

I just ordered them also and probley going to set them first at 2"

 

There's 1.75 or 2.5 I believe. No 2

 

I ok thanks

 

Lifting the front by 1.75" and the back by 2" will increase the factory rake by .25".

Lifting the front by 2.5" and the back by 2" will decrease it by .5". Do you understand where I am getting those numbers?

BTW keep in mind AALs will sag a little over time.

 

Sorry. Last link was no good. Here's a photo of what the air bag valves installed look like when out through your license plate. This is what I did, no compressor. Just maintained em at gas stations every so often. Super easy.

 

Airbags save your aal. I had les schwab install and they offer an awesome warranty if for any reason you hesitate. You shouldn't.

 

My current leaf pack has about 46k miles and it's only 3 leaves. It might be less of a lift because of this?

 

It looks really nice, that is the lift I am looking to do to mine. I was just wondering what size tires and wheels are you running? It has a very small lean, can you lower the front billies.

 

That's great!

A little, I think. That's the same thing I am about to install except with an AAL of the same mileage.
