    Is this for a 2.5" or 3" lift? Anyone with experience with this setup have any alignment issues w/o UCAs?

    The lift and whether or not UCAs is needed is dependent on the shock setting. To answer this question one would have to know what setting you plan to go with.

    At the maximum lift the 6112 assembly will achieve with either the AAL or a 2" block in the rear. My goal is to achieve a 3" total lift of the truck. I would love to tell you that I will be taking it all kinds of off road, but in reality it will get far more use in the city but I want the ability to have that performance. If UCAs are necessary to get the correct alignment/camber settings, any good recommendations on what type to get? I have read many, many posts on here! (great information, but there is almost TOO much info), and I want to make sure I get the best setup I can get for the money while not sacrificing ride quality on/off road.

    Never enough
    Couple questions...
    1.) Do the 6112 come with springs?
    2.) Assuming they come with springs, is any front lift achieved with the 6112 set at 0"? (Similar to a 5100 set at 0" with OME 885x springs)
    3.) If the springs do not provide lift at the "0" setting, how much is ride quality compromised by preloading the spring to achieve front lift by using higher clip settings? Maybe a better way of asking this is, what is the spring rate of the springs?

    Sorry if any of these questions are ridiculous, I haven't seen them answered on this thread or others I've read about the 6112. Thanks!

    Answered in order

    1) Yes hence strut/"Coil" combo
    2) Yes the first setting will provide some lift, reference chart provided below pic of kit in original post. For the record with 5100s set at ZERO and running 885 coils will yield 2.5" of lift since the coils are lift coils. Its only with the factory coils that will you get you no lift.
    3) Ride quality is dependent on ones interpretation of a good quality ride. As for the coil spring rate I am not sure. The struts were paired with a coil that Bilstein felt was suitable to support the weight of the truck and align with the dampening characteristics of the struts.
