    did a quick search and couldnt find anything on this.

    i have a 2016 that i put the ome leaf pack with ome add a leaf, that i had on my 2013. i get a loud noise when i go over speed bumps or hit a bump in the road in the rear end. everythings tight and aligned propperly i have bilstien 5100s on it and im wondering if they are too short. the 5100 say for 0-3 or 3.5 in of lift and i have 3.5 all around. could that be my issue or is it because they have a higher spring rate or any other ideas?

    Does it make noise in the front or the rear?

    Driving over a speed bump and hearing it should make it obvious which end is the problem.

    Which 5100s are you using in the rear?

    I think those are standard length 5100s, so likely your shocks are fully extending over any tiny bump.

    You should have B110 5100s (extended length) for that much lift.

    Yup.

    That's my best guess.
