    5100s VS Spacers

    I know fabtech makes one, but i dont know if it will work on a non 6'' lift. if you do the 5100's you might be able to get away with using the fabtech stabilizer.

    5100s VS Spacers

    what do you mean by handle better? like body roll? or like when you are towing etc? From my experience, i just put the 5100's in and they ride better then my stock ones. I had spacers in my old truck, and for me there is no comparison, 5100's all the way. I mean i think i paid $97 a piece...

    crescent1101- thanks man, im really happy with everything from the zone lift to the bds 5'' rear springs and how comfortable the 5100's make the ride. i searched for literally weeks trying to get a bracket for my roof, and the only one i could find that would 100% fit was the one from...

    okay so i will just install the 5100's at 2.1 and the 4 5/8 spacer that comes with the lift kit and leave out the 1'' preload spacer.

    5100 install issue with zone lift.

    okay so with my 6' zone lift, i have the 4 5/8 spacer, and then optional 1'' spacer. which one should i have installed and which one should i leave off, in order to run the bilsteins at 2.1? should i remove both spacers, should i only use the 1'' or should i use the 4 5/8.

    5100 install issue with zone lift.

    So the shop that is doing my lift called me and left me a message. i couldn't understand what he was trying to explain to me but what i think i got out of it is: with the zone lift he put the back in with the upgraded 5'' bds springs. he says that they are having a tough time with the 5100's...

    How to wire reverse fog lights?

    I am considering doing the same thing to my ram. my easy solution would be to just wire the led bars that you mounted on the rear bumper, to a switch and just manually turn it on when going in reverse or when working. This is what i will be doing rather then mess with trying to tap into the...

    The New Rough Country Lift

    is there a website that sells these bds springs? i cant seem to find them online. ok so if i order the rough country lift and depending on my rake either set it to 1.4 or 2.1 then later on add the 5 inch bds springs and turn the 5100's up to 2.8 then it will be level and higher correct?

    The New Rough Country Lift

    while this may have answered your questions AOFA it still doesn't help mine. im going to take my rake measurements and PM you FastNugly and discuss options with you. but to those who said i installed the rough country and set the 5100's to 2.8 or 2.1 can you tell us if you installed the new...

    The New Rough Country Lift

    id like to go with a rough country lift but not the new one that uses coil spacers. i wanted to put my own spacers on after the lift. so i guess i will just have to go with the zone lift and use the 5100's and additional spacers.

    The New Rough Country Lift

    so rather then order the rough country kit, and then have to order new springs to raise the back a little to adjust for the 5100's. Pretty close to the same price as the zone 6/5 inch lift and i wont have to buy new springs with the zone kit. correct?

    The New Rough Country Lift

    So if i go with the rough country, set the bilsteins at 2.1 and add the 3'' body lift it should be close to level if not it will have a slight rake?

    The New Rough Country Lift

    My bad I didn't mean 1.8 okay so maybe I'll just have to do a little guessing and set the 5100's at 1.4 and if it's level then I'm all set. Or I could try ordering an older kit off eBay that doesn't use spacers, set the 5100's to 2.8 and add a 1.5" rear spacer.

    The New Rough Country Lift

    so when you installed the new rough country lift, did it level your truck? or does it still have a little rake? assuming it had a rake to begin with. Im hoping i can use the lift and then set the 5100's to something like 2.1 or 1.8 and it still be either pretty level or have a slight rake since...

    The New Rough Country Lift

    So as everyone probably knows now, rough country decided to use coil spacers in their lift kit. I was going to order that kit, use 5100's in the front set to 2.8 and then add the 3'' pa body lift and rear spacers to avoid the nose high problem. My question is, with the change of their kit i cant...
