    Rancher shell,16x8 Enduro rims with 265/75/16 BFG K/O'S, 5100's with eibach springs and a 2 inch aal not installed yet;) brute force rear bumper with a tire gate and rotopax 2 gal cans.
    Hi fellow TWM, I just order me some 5100's for all 4 corners of my truck. I am now thinking I should go ahead and order some Eibach coils and put them on now so I don't have to do it later. I'm gonna run the 5100's at the .85 setting (I believe that's the one) with the eibach coils (Heard that that's the sweet spot on them with that set up). And i believe that would put me at around 2.5 inches up front. My question is "What should I run in the rear?" I want a close to level truck preferable maybe a slight raise in the rear for towing/hauling. I thinking about the add a leaf over spacers. On my truck now I have two main leafs and a over load one. So I'm thinking about going with the 2 inch add a leaf from toytec (link listed below). Now in theory that should close up my stock rake by .50 of a inch. so would my truck look more level or with it raised up that high would it be more noticeable?(to high in the rear) Or should I go with the 1.5 inch add a leaf from wheelers off road? If you have the same/similar set up please post a Picture of your truck so I can get a better Idea.Thanks guys/ladys :cool:
