    Thanks!! I have had it done just about a week. It rides great! I think it feels better then the stock setup/shocks. I did take the overload out.

    Here is a different angle. You can see how nice the level of this kit is. Still retains some factory rake but brings the front up nicely. Cleared my SCS 17x8.5 with 265/70-17 ko2 nicely.

    I have not heard of anyone doing so. I have had customers use the 0.85" setting on the 2nd gen Bilsteins with the 887's though. Preloading a lift coil will provide a little more lift so most using that combination saw around 1" additional lift from the 887's then they did at the 0 setting.

    Just put the 5100s I got from Headstrong on. Stock rear and stock coils up front. I used the 3rd notch and truck sits almost perfectly level. I'm pretty happy with it.
