    How much spacer lift do u have now?

    If you plan to do a lot of offroading and will use the king coilovers to their potential, get those.

    If your truck is a daily driver occasional off roader, go for 5100's. Look into eibach springs and ome springs also.

    I occasionally offroad so I'll save my money and get the 5100s but I'm not sure about the spacer lift, I have both the hard spacer and the soft spacer, it's higher in the front by like an 1.5" should I get a UCA also?

    Haven't heard about soft and hard spacers...

    Just buy a set of front and rear 5100's from down south motor sports. That's the best place for the price.

    Set them to 1.75 or 2.5. Get a 1.5 AAL or 2 inch AAL. You won't need new UCas at those heights unless u go up to 3 inches
