Setup compatibility questions—will this work without diff drop?

    I have some questions about the compatibility of a setup I’m planning on installing, would really appreciate some feedback!

    In the front, I plan on installing eibach 1.6” lift coils on 5100s set at .85, then a 1/2 inch spacer on drivers side and 1/4 inch spacer on passenger side. (Drivers side still lifted 1/4 inch more than passenger so it still compensates for the lean, I’m hoping).

    In back, I already installed 5100s and now plan on doing a 2 inch lift AAL. Im looking for an AAL kit under $100, if Anyone has recommendations on the best kit I’d love to hear them.

    So overall it should be about 2.8” up front and 2” in the back. Will this equal a good level? And do you think I’ll have to install diff drops? I also plan on getting 32’s, since it seems the consensus that any bigger wheel than that requires trimming.

    Would love some comments/answers on this setup, thanks!

    If I were you I would go with the 5100’s set at 0 and use ome 887’s for the lift, with 1/4” spacer on the drivers side. You’ll get better ride quality not having to preload the spring and won’t have to buy two top plate spacers or longer top plate studs to run the 1/2 inch spacer. As far as the aal, Wheelers off-road has both 1.5 and 2 inch for around $80+ shipping
