    That should ride pretty nice. Any issues with needle bearing or you already replace? Mine started at the lowly 1.75

    What setting did you end up using and did it settle? I have a plate bumper and need to lift the front back up to or possibly a little above stock height. Bumper is ~130lbs

    I think 265/75/16 = 265/70/17 which is what I am running. 17 x 8.5 wheel with -6 offset. Bilsteins at 1.75. No rubbing, no mods needed.

    Loving this look - is it as simple as getting the 5100s on the front set to 1.75 with the stock rear set up?

    The front is set at 1.75 (third setting), I had the rear stock for some time and recently added 5100's to the rear. This did not change the height of the rear just an fyi. The truck rides great for only $330.
