    I have a 2019 dclb off road mgm..@82k purchased new..it took me this long to pull the trigger on new wheels and tires..I just put $$$ on a set of 5100..the reason I'm buying the upgrade shocks is i would like a better ride..something a little firmer...I dont want to jack it too the moon but, since I'm spending the money...why not lift it a little...im 55 yrs old...don't need to go crazy with the lift..but would I notice if I set them at .65 on the second clip???..thoughts??...

    It depends. Did you get new coil springs? For firmer ride get stronger springs. I went from stock to 600 lbs springs. It did wallow in the turns, much better now. New tires and wheels. What else are you changing?

    Thank you...im keeping the stock springs..just installing bilstein 5100 and was thinking of the second notch @.65 on the front obviously...I guess I could put a jack under the truck and raise it .65 to see what it would hypothetically look like
