Magnetic Gray Thread!!!

It's on 5100 all around. Front height set to 1.75. Some ride rite bags on the rear set at 8 psi. Tires are 265/75/16. Didn't want to play the rubbing and cutting game with 285.

 

I have them and have no complaints. Been a few months now and they ride great with low noise. Heavier of course, but tolerable.

 

what wheels are those?!

 

anyone put bronze wheels on a MGM yet and have a good pic of it?

 

Yeah. Still waiting on his response.

 

Made and installed a new switch plate. Switches on bottom don't do anything yet, top ones are my front and rear LEDs. What should I add next?

 

Compressor and front locker of course.

 

Need to work on getting my sliders back on. Have to redo the rear leg after the Chevy swap.

Gah, 5100s are definitely in my future. I was never for them until very recently, but that looks fantastic. My only question will be what to do in the rear, airbags or AAL. Do you have the extended 5100s in the rear?

Also, how do you find the ride with those tires, the 5100s @ 1.75 and the OR progressive front springs?

 

I liked when I had 5100's at 1.75'' and stock OR coils. Rode fairly nice.

As far as the rear, I had the TSB 4-leaf pack when I had 5100's and the stance was almost perfectly level. Picture below.



To give you a little reference, the next pic is OME 885's with 5100's at 0'', and Toytek 1.5'' AAL in the rear.

Matt,

Thanks for the pics. Unfortunately I've hit a dead end on getting the 4 leaf TSB so far. If my research is correct 5100 up front at 1.75 is basically level with the 4 leaf. The 0.85 is level with a 3 leaf. I've got the ARB so I figured I'd be going at 1.75 regardless of my rear leaf setup.

I'm thinking I might do something in the back, and I know that there are two sets of 5100s for the rear, one is extended and one is stock. I just wasn't sure what most people were running for the rear. If my memory serves me right the extended 5100 is for 3-4" of lift. Although, with the TSB leaf pack a 1.5 AAL is something like 2"+ of lift over the 3 leaf, if memory serves me.

I'd love to do the 5160 remote rear shocks but Bilstein specs those only for a 1" rear lift and there are no AALs that are only 1". The shortest I found was the Icon 1.5" which most people here love and I think I might ultimately go with, as the air bag setup doesn't necessarily work for me as I won't be doing any hauling.

Decisions, and savings are in my future. Ultimately I don't want to overbuy (which is why I'm rethinking going with the full OME setup and UCAs) but I don't want to get something that won't work either. I lost a bunch of height with the weight of the ARB, so I'd just like to get it back.
