    What are 5100s? I thought they were dampeners. How does that change ride height? Am I missing something?

    I threw on 5100s with ome 887 springs to raise the front to correct the 1.5 inches of rake the truck had... meaning it was no where close to level when I got it

    You called it, Except that the pranksters are the ones selling the leveling kits for these trucks. The suckers are the ones buying them when the trucks already come level.

    You're missing the fact that 5100's are adjustable shocks and are used to level trucks

    Ok. I am not familiar with this method or these shocks. What is the mechanism used to raise the car?

    Yeah but I haven't wasted any time looking for a leveling kit... I did waste time on your thread.
