hey guys so after doing some searching around here Im really set on a level with bilsteins 5100 series with new mevo uca's so before i go any further where do you guys measure your wheel well gaps from?? ie from the bottom of the tire to the top of the wheel well or from the top of the tire?? does it matter? I think i want to set the bils at 2.8 and leave the back alone i want to eliminate the rake on my truck but i also dont want the truck to be nose high just have the wheel wells match as close as possible. i also might buy some airlift 1000's incase i decide i want to tow. any ideas comments suggestions complaints????

if your truck is still the 2011 listed in your profile, you really don't need the Mevo UCA's, but it doesn't hurt either.

Normally people measure from the ground to the fender on the centerline of the wheel. I'm sure you could get a close enough measurement just form the top of the tire to the fender.

Don't know if it's the same for the 2011's, but I set by Bils to 2.1 and the truck sits level. Hood makes it look nose high a bit. A bunch of people of here seems to install a 1.5" spacer when they set their Bils to 2.8
