    Have a question regarding the two types of 5100's. I have in the rear an icon aal and an overload leaf I believe.

    I was told the normal bilstein 5100's wont work with an AAL and overload leaf. Just wondering if the RCD5100 is a better option. And also if there is any modification needed? I know the 5125 rears need some modification.

    Thanks,

    Grant

    I have the Dakar leafs and went with the RCD BE5-B110-T5 5100. The normal 5100s will fit, sure, but suspension travel may not be optimized. You might be limited in droop.
