    Man.....I'm actually super disappointed right now. I just measured from hub to fender and got 23 1/2 in front and 24in in the rear
    The only thing I have in bed is the stock stuff rear leafs and front struts
    So I don't see how it'll drop it 1.5inches and the front I was expecting to get at least 2.75in in the front

    My truck handles so much better on rough roads and off road without the sway bar. On smooth road I have less body roll than stock with the sway bar because of the 885 coils. My stock coils on 5100s set at 1.75 was slightly more stiff than the 885s on 5100s.

    I've read that stock height is aprox 20 on front and 22 on rear. So it looks like you got 3 1/2" on front and 2" on rear.

    Hmmmmm I'm about to research! But I would think I would get more in the rear cause it's allpro expo leafs. And it doesn't seem like 3 1/2 especially how good my cv's looks

    You could have some height loss from the body mount bushings squishing. What year is it, and do you regularly carry much weight in the cab?

    I have a 2013 DC.. if 58lespaul was right about the stock measurements then I'm sitting at 3 1/2 lift in the front and 2" lift in the rear (which I have my stock suspension in my bed)
