    I’ve since been with the 6112’s / 5160 on 600lb coils great ride. Off road excellent. IMO I wouldn’t change a thing. Lots of suspensions to choose from.
    Good luck

    Stock springs will work until you add weight. Once any weight is added it is best to go with a spring with heavier rate and or length.

    I have a 2nd gen but run 725# eibach springs on 2nd notch on 5100 to mitigate the sag. I'm around 2" of lift. Any more gear and I think a larger shock will fare better. It really depends on your utilization of your setup.
