    So look at that bottom sway bar and check for rubbing? This just started. Is it something I need to watch it get fixed?

    Do I need the "strut assembly" that headstrong sells with it? It adds another $90. Or will the installers do that when I get the lift installed

    That is just them assembling the coilover for you. So if you plan to install it yourself, then yeah I'd have them assemble it. If you're having it installed by a shop, probably not.

    I did mine myself. It was a bitch because my lower control arm didn't swing down like they said in the video. My alignment cams are seized to my lca bushings. I had to pry down the lower contro arm with a bar. Not fun by myself. I have 884 springs, 5100's set at 0 all around, and wheelers hd 5 leaf pack that raised the rear 2".

    Reading around.. It looks like stock measurement from middle of hub to fender is 20"... And most people are getting around 23" after the 5100 and OME lift.

    Measuring mine I'm around 22" all around. So what did the previous owner do? And is the new lift going to only put me at 23" and add barely an inch?

    I'm not sure. I'm away from home so icant measure my truck, but I'll try when I'm back. Maybe you've got new front coils already? I left the stickers on my ome 884 because I was in a rush and didn't have anything handy to get them off. Once they are off I don't think you can identify them.
