    Hey everybody, just wanted to show off my new setup! For lift I got Bilstein 5100s with OME 887s and an AAL. Wheels are 16" KMC XD addicts on 285 duratracs. Still need to do some light trimming on the front bumper. Overall, pretty pleased with the ride, however alignment doesn't feel right...I'm planning on getting some UCAs soon so that should help.

    Next steps include blacking out badges, BHLM, black bedside decals and thinking about plasti derpin the nerf bars. I also really want to remove the XD badge on the hub caps, anybody ever done that? I might just plasti derp those too though. Anyways, what do yall think? I love it!

    I think it looks great! :) But like Bill said it's all about what you like.

    I really like the Addict XD wheels.

    Looks nice. How's the ride? This is the same lift I'm looking into. Does it sit level or slight rake?

    Thanks everyone. The ride is great, feels a little different...maybe a little stiffer. I honestly haven't noticed much of a difference from stock. Really the only issue is the alignment doesn't feel right. Probably should have gotten the UCAs too, I will soon. I've been taking it really slow on turns and bumps because I still haven't trimmed and it rubs the bumper. I haven't really tested the suspension other than driving on paved roads, but I'm excited to go play soon.

    As far as height goes, I didn't measure or anything but to me it looks perfectly level. Hopefully it stays that way...

    I went with the 887s because they are the same spring rate as the 885s, which is recommended for double cabs, only they are slightly taller. Basically the same height as 885s with the small top plate spacer, only no top plate spacer! I hope to get a bumper someday but that is probably a year out at least

    Be better off getting OEM replacement Kings coilovers with Total Chaos UCA. I have Bilstein and rode decent. I then switched to kings and WAY better street driving and off road. Soaks up the bumps and rides perfect. Well worth spending the extra money for the long run
