    Please don't kill me. I've searched multiple times, and maybe i'm not wording it correctly.

    Can you just put on 5100 in front and get a decent lift out of it? No other parts at all.
    I would also like to see if i could do 5100 in front and maybe a aal in rear if the front ends up higher.

    I would like it to sit higher and level. Do not want Bro rake.
    I do not offroad much.

    Here are 2 pics with 5100 set at 2.5. The bed was sagging with the old springs and even when the new replacement (recall) springs were put in. I had to add the icon AAL (no pic posted) and leave the overload in for the truck to look GOOD!. I guess you could set the 5100 to 1 or 2 and not need the AAL but only if you are running smaller tire. I am running the LT285/75R16 AT TAKO2 RWL which are 33s.

    Bilstein is supposedly getting the 5100s actually meant for the 2016in a month or two.

    I guess if you don't want to do anything but a small front level it wouldn't matter but you should read this.

    I can tell on the one truck the front is definitely higher than the back, but what about the first 2?

    I might wait for the new 5100s to come out and put them on and if it's to high then add a aal. I would like to run 285/75r16 on it.

    Nothing done to back, but swapped out OEM yellow Bilsteins for 5100s. Front has 5100s & ToyTec adjustable coilovers cranked up to level with rear, which would be similar ride height to the .85 clip position if running 5100s with stock coils.
