Bilstein 5100s with AAL

I just recently ordered bilstein 5100s for front and back + the 2 in lift AAL. Will I need new coils up front? And to compensate for the AAL should I set the shocks at 1.75? I appreciate all the help and will post pics as soon as I get everything installed. Here's a pic of my truck currently.

 

Not really simple yes/no answers to your questions. Get ready for information overload. With a 2"aal you will be pretty rear high and will have to do something up front to compensate. Lots of thing to consider as to weather you will buy new springs and/or use the 5100s' spring perch settings. Ok, do you want to level, or maintain the approximate 1" factory rake? With a 2" aal, you will probably end up with about the factory rake set @1.75. If you want to level, you'll want to set the 5100s @ 2.5. This will open up the next possibility of needing new ucas' to get proper alignment specs. Is your truck is an OR (I don't see a scoop in your pic)? If yes, you may not like how stiff the progressive OR springs get @ 1.75 or higher preload, wear as the straight rate sport springs don't get as firm with preload. Then it's which springs to get for how much lift. Between stock, Eibach and OME, the 5100s' perch settings, top plate spacers - there's a lot of combinations out there. Also, do have or want to get a plate bumper, or a winch? Decide what you want to end up with, then take the time to search and read this section, and get wrenching. Good luck.

 

Thanks for the help..I called toytec and the kit comes with new coils. I plan on keeping the rest of the truck stock..bumper ect. I'm wanting to run 17s. What is a good tire size?
