5100s with OME 884 coils.

Ah , gonna put 884 on a 3rd gen 2wd long bed .

 

Youll get about the same lift with 884s in the front.. 2.25-2.5ish.

Heres the lift guide from headstrongoffroad..

 

any more pictures on 3d gens? I ordered the 5100s with a 1.5" AAL and am still trying to decide if I want to go 884 or 885. I'm going to be on stock wheels/rims for a little while. 2018 Sport DCSB.

 

If you got facebook, headstrong offroad page has a bunch of photos with specs they running.

 

Looking at it now. I'm not looking for huge lift, and am looking to stay raked a little, but right now I have zero rake, in fact my rear is 1/4" lower than the front on these Hitachi shocks, with the OEM bedcover. I got the 5100's and a 1-1/2" AAL coming from Rogue, but just can't decide on the front springs.

 

Heres a before/after. I got bout 2.5in lift in the front with 885s. Some say for doublecabs 885s are better for the extra weight. The ride is a little bit stiffer but it doesnt bother me. I have a AAL in the rear and have about a 1/2in higher rake.

 

So the chart says 2.25" for 2x4 DC on the 885s. You got more? Interesting. Did you put the 1/4" spacer on the driver's side as well?

 

I did put a spacer. Im assuming cause i just installed it (3wks ago), it hasnt fully settled yet maybe..and i havent remeasured it since..

 

I’m running 5100’s with 885’s and an extra leaf added to the back. I like the ride just have an issue with the stagger right now. I have -6 rims and the passenger side sticks out farther than the driver side. Still trying to research and see why it’s like that.

Rims all same -6 and size
Tires all same size
5100’s all set on 0:0

 

Did you keep stock UCA's? I'm thinking of doing a similar setup but with the medium duty Dakar's in back. 2016 Sport 2WD DCSB.

 

Yes. I kept stock UCAs. I got an alignment just fine. I think anything over 3" ucas is preferred...

 

Lol. I just added some spacers yesturday and noticed the same problem.. bout 3/4in sticks out more...

I read its common and "normal", factory misaligned mounting the bed, or the gas tank makes it lean over more, etc. It drives fine but it is making my ocd bonkers. Im trying to ignore it.

 

Done , 2nd gen 5100 , 884 ome coils

 

Hey that looks really good! Do you have pre and post lift measurements? Also, are you on setting 1? Also, did you put in an AAL?

 

Oh, nice!

 

Fronts are on stock setting , lifted 1.5 inch used 1/4 hs spacer for lean , stock rear

 

How much rake do you guys have with this set up? I'm about to pull the trigger on the exact same but was worried I'd be too ass high if the AAL ended up more on the 2" side. Don't want to go with the 885s. DCLB 4x4

Edit - new here, didn't do it right...this was supposed to include this quote as well..."Hey man thread revival, I’ve already got bilstein 5100’s on all four corners and looking at getting OME 884’s/ 1/4 driver side spacer/ and the 1.5 to 2” deaver aal. Is this the exact same setup you have?"

 

See my build. Just put the following in on Thursday night.

Bilstein 5100 set on stock setting
OME 884
1-1/2" AAL
1/4" spacer on driver side.

Here is freshly done:



I'm starting to get a little settle and will take new pics on level pavement Monday.

 

Did you get bad vibrations after this lift, did you install ecgs bearing?

 

Nice looking truck!
