    I'm starting this thread because I'm curious of other's BP-51 settings and set-ups. I'm having trouble dialing it in perfectly and would also like to discuss different settings for different situations.

    Current set-up
    - 2017 SBDC TRDOR
    - BP-51s with OME medium leaf pack,
    - UCAs
    - C4 fab Lo-Pro bumper with winch
    - C4 Sliders
    - 285/70/17 Duratracks
    - Method 0 offset wheels

    Rebound Front: 3
    Compression Front: 5

    Rebound Back: 3
    Compression Back: 4

    My problem is I can't seem to find a good setting where it doesn't ride rock hard or it does ride so loose that the whole truck shakes. Share your thoughts and progress here.

    Not seeing it and don't remember posting it. I'll eliminate the other one if I can find it. It's not under my profile. Thanks for the heads up though.

    I don't have BP51s but,
    I would think most of the harshnees is from the leaf springs.
    Do you have weight in the bed? With the dakars you need to carry some gear to smooth them out.
    Try more rebound starting with the back.
    Find a trail to test on, add another click of rebound and test it out. repeat.

    It should not bounce, if it does add rebound.
