    Probably. Will also probably drive like a shopping cart without correct alignment / aftermarket UCAs.

    I was hoping it doesn't rob. I was planning on going to the lowest setting on the 5100 and the oldman emu to do the 3" lift.

    Less lift is a cheap option.

    If you want to be high, it comes with a cost.
