Anybody from Houston? Looking for help to lift my truck

okay cool not far away really , I will also go with the 5100 but with ome 885 coil and drakar leafs

 

-

I do have a garage with most of the tools , I should buy my kit sometime this month

 

Just did the 5100's on my truck, with the 2" headstrong coils... Came pre-assembled.. probably took 3 hours to do all 4 corners..

 

I heard mixed feed back on running on the 5th Notch, some people talk about poor ride quality, that's why I changed out the coils.

 

Nice to hear that its easy, I have installed coilovers and springs on some of my old cars so it shouldn't be hard,
also I heard the same about the 5th notch issue

 

That set up is gonna sit way up asss high

Would suggest just going AAL or 1” block for 885 front

 

Drakar pack will make the ass end too high ?
The 885 coil should be fine tho right about 2 inch lift
yeah an AAL should be good enough

 

Damn, if I was in town I would help for sure

 

Welcome to TW!

When are you looking to do this?

I'm in League City too.

Nope. In fact, it's generally recommend that you don't.

Maybe.

The Dakars without the overload leaf should be fine without much of a rake. Or a stiff AAL like you said, but I think Dakars will be okay.

 

Once you install (or uninstall) a suspension lift, you'll quickly identify tools you'll need. After a couple installations and you'll be replacing coilovers and UCAs without thought.

The yellow Daytona floor jack from HF and I are best buddies. Love that thing.

 

Prob next weekend since I need to reorder a extended 5100 for the rear since I am going to install a full dakar leaf spring in the rear. I accidentally ordered the regular 5100 for rear.
