    Oh I have no problem being corrected, I know I'm an amateur, but the forcefulness of the responses seemed unwarranted.

    Take a pic of the suspension on all 4 corners and post it. Then go back and tell the piece if shit salesman you want the 5100's installed that you were told the truck had.

    Haha def do that, the people on here know 20000 times more then the dealers do. The guy showing the OR didn’t even under stand locking diffs ended up with the sport 90% highway Op everyone here is just trying to help. There is a ton of help to be had, some bullshit but you just have to take that with a grain of salt Trust me I have seen people be total d bags on here with statements like Google it, instead of give just a easy answer. Welcome, I’m new too. Just remember to give back

    This ^ we were trying to help and clarify, we’ve all been there but OP kept insisting the stock heights were different, I get it I hate being wrong too, but happens to all of us. This site is a lot better too with mods intervening, you think people are tough now you should have seen pre 3rd gen forum, definitely had to have thick skin. But it’s all in love and being a part of community.

    As others have posted, your rear is definitely stock. They may have thrown 5100s in the front just to level, its kind of hard to tell from the picture. If you have silver shocks, they are 5100s, if they are blue they are stock. If you have 5100s you can probably adjust the lift higher on them. For the rear you can use a block(not recommended if you're using a RTT), add a leaf(AAL), or replace the leaf pack. You should also replace the rear shocks, as stock aren't meant for a lift.

    If you have 5100s up front, adding 5100s and an AAL in the rear would be a pretty decent upgrade. If you're stock all the way around, there are tons of options, and you just need to decide exactly what you want out of your truck.

    Try to get a pic of your front shocks. If they are in fact 5100, then you would be ok leaving the front end alone. The front 5100 are adjustable so you could lift front for free.

    The rear in your pick is 100% the stock shocks. I would not recommend spacers under any circumstance. Go with AAL (add a leaf) or change the rear leaf pack completely.
