    I'm about to install 5100's 887 coils and full dakars on my off road . Do I need to remove or get a new skid plate?

    Why do you think you would need to do this?

    Negative ghost rider. I have the same setup. The skid plate remains untouched because you went with a proper lift. Instead of one where you hatchet a crossmember out.

    Anytime. Make sure you take preliminary measurements, so you can actually tell how much of a lift you ended up with.

    Yep for sure. I'll let you all know how it goes. Looks like Wednesday I'll have em on. Still can't decide on tires though. It's friggin draining deciding. Don't want ko2's but want an aggressive look with a good ride.

    6112 front set at top setting driver side and 5th setting passengr side.
    5160 in rears with 1 inch block.

    Just installed when it settles front should give me 2 inches in front. Right after install gave me 2 1/4 up front. Truck should settle at even 23 inches from hub to center.

    Had ECGS bushing installed at same time.

    Alignment will be tomorrow.

    So i lifted my 2017 with 6112 bilsteins at the top setting which nets approx 2 inches. rear has 5160 with a 1 inch block.

    Stock UCA.. got my alignment today they got my camber and toe at 0 on both sides, but set my caster at .2 and .5

    I thought I should be able to net a higher caster on stock arms? Do you think once it settles a bit they will be able to and or... incompetent technician. They were already scared to even try to align my truck when they saw my aftermarket shocks...

    Help.. do you think I need aftermarket UCA?? No rubbing currently either...

    If you're having trouble finding The right side shock being in stock the only difference is the left comes with a relocation bracket that you do not have to use on the right is what somebody else mentioned on here previously

    It's just an OCD thing with me... I would like to buy the part made exactly for that side... but now I will likely order two lefts tomorrow.

    Someone verified with Bilstein , they are the same shock, they just have a bracket for brake line believe, i've never seen a shock in person so I'm not sure if it's a removable piece or welded on. @smitty99 or one of the other gurus might know @HeadStrong Off-Road Marie. @YotaDan from Wheelers

    So I ordered some 16" scs wheels to go with my lift I'm about to install but I'm a little worried because the backspacing is -25 which they said would have an aggressive stance and be about 2&1/2" wider than stock with 285 75's. I'm worried it's going to be gaudy though. To check appropriately, where would I measure from on my current tires? The tread edge or the side wall.. What?

    That looks awesome. I'm desperately looking to see how far these stick out becuase I have some stealth 6's on the way in 16 with the same tires coming and I'm terrified that it's going to stick out too far with the -25 offset. Do you have a pic from the front or back? How do you like the look? Thanks man!
