    I havE 881'S with OME shocks up front. Not sure what my measurements are. When I first lifted the truck, the ride was kinda rough but it didnt bother me. I had BFG KO "C" load tires on it (pictured). After some research, I swapped them out for a set of Dynapros "P" metric. The P metric tires ride A LOT smoother. I should of changed the tires sooner! Tire size is 265/70/17.

    Did you do anything to the rear? And would you have a chance anytime soon to get some hub to fender measurements? It would be really helpful.

    I’m sure someone has with a regear. What setup do you have?

    OP, I wouldn't use anything more than the 881 unless your truck is very very very heavy. These trucks (assuming you're 4x4) do not like a lot of lift. You'll be blowing cv boots all the time.

    22" front 24" rear. 881 coils. Dakars. Axle relocation plate that adds 1/2" or so to the rear. Plenty of extra weight. Bumper, sliders, ifs skid, trans skid.




    Lots of detail/pics in my build. Seriously though, err on the side of less lift up front.

    Do you have measurements? And what size spacer are you using?

    24" in the front 25" in the rear, 1/2" spacer up front that came with the kit
    I measured from the center of the wheel to the fender, not sure if the flares would have made it any different.

    I’ll probably go with this setup cause it should give me a little more than my current 5100s set at 2.5

    yea its not a bad kit, would definitely stick with the 881s but Im most likely either gonna get a progressive aal or a leaf pack because the ride in the rear with the single aal is really rough.

    Not sure but I think my rear measurement is somewhere around 24-25” but I’ll measure again after school.
