    Posting in here as there is more traffic than the suspension forum

    Ok I am going to be replacing my front shocks and coils in the near future, I am currently running 5100s up front on stock coils set at 1.75. I will be getting new 5100s and new coils, and a Deaver AAL for the rear. I have the recall leaf springs so my truck is pretty much level, maybe a slight sag in the rear as it sits.

    I am looking to keep my truck level with the AAL in the back, should I go for a 2" lift in the front with 884s, would 2.5" be too much? I will be adding a plate rear bumper at some point as well, the rear bumper is a mess and needs to be replaced, the brackets on the bumper itself are a rusted mess hence why it sits a little low compared to the rear body panel.

    Truck as it sits now

    Get 885x for the 4x4. You'll get @ 2.5" in the front. Some rake will be there, but not very noticeable. Check the suspension forum. There's a xx pages long thread about this exact lift.

    Thanks, I just need to get a good measurement on my truck as it sits now to see if I want to go 2" or 2.5", with the recall leaf springs I have a little negative rake right now with the front at 1.75" and I want to eliminate that.

    Searched for that thread, there are so many, couldn't seem to find the one you are referring to.
