    I'm looking at 275/55/20 with some AT tires... my local install shop is telling me that they should be fine with a 2" lift... i'm hoping it's true.

    That looks really good. What difference have you seen in gas mileage?

    5100s/OME 888s. Dakar leaf pack. Total Chaos UCAs. DeMello Sliders. BAMF Recessed Grille. Prinsu Cabrack and Toprack.
    Any AAL would be better than the blocks. I used the Deaver 3 leaf progressive AAL which tends to be a bit smoother ride than a single AAL.

    Wow. Great looking truck. I'm partial to the color. Do you have front diff vibes since lifting?

    None. I have the diff drop kit but I haven't installed it. And thanks for the complement!

    I'd recommend OME 885 or 887 springs withe the bilsteins set at 0 and three leaf progressive AAL in the rear, you'd be about at 2 inch in the front, 1.5 in the rear, smoother ride than preloading the 5100s and all in for less than $700. Add a 1/4 inch trim packer to offset drivers lean and it should give you what you want with decent offroad capability without breaking the bank.

    Consider adding the ECSG bearing to prevent front dif vibes. Easier to do during installation of the lift than to have to go back later and install. Bearing alone is $60 and worth the added expense.

    No because they're hub centric.

    Cuz mine shakes now when going around 25 miles. I have Eibach 2.5" up front and 1" in the rear with 1.25" wheel spacers with 285 75 16 KO2's. Any ideas?

    Anyone use the OME 884 springs? I'm only looking for a 1.75'' lift. From my calculations using the Headstrong site, the 884s should yield a 1.75'' lift on a 3rd gen DCSB 4x2 with the second gen Bilsteins. I want to be certain before pulling the trigger.

    Does it shake in 4 Hi? If not then you need to replace needle bearing with the ECGS bushing.

    Yes it does. I am thinking it's the stock springs. I just ordered ome 887. I'll wait and install it and find out.
