    Vehicle:
    04 DC 4x4, Flatbed, auto, teardrop tugboat.
    Flatbed, Bilstein/OME 883 lifted, ARB bumper, Warn M8000, Onboard air, Onboard water system, Lights, Lights, Lights
    I recently added an ARB bumper, and Warn M8000 winch, with steel rope, to stock suspension, and as one would expect I need to upgrade the front springs, and while I am at it upgrade the struts at the same time. After a series of messages with Wheelers, they recommended Bilstein 5100's with OME 881's which would net some, but in their calculation minimal lift.
    My biggest question, does anyone have a similar setup, and how close to stock height did they stay?
    The other option, albeit less desired by me, would to be to go with their other recommendation that leads to 2ish inches of lift, and of course bring up the rear end with AAL.

    Current setup, 04 Double cab, TRD off road, Flat bed, V6 Auto, front suspension stock, rear stock, with ride right air springs for weight carrying help, 265/75R16 BFG AT tires all around.
