Hi to all from the dessert. Newbie here with 2016 SLT model 5.7 Hemi!!

Yesterday change shock (B8 5100), front set @ 2.1". Rear as well + poly spacers of 3cm (~ 1.2" inch).
Tires replaced with Bridgestone Duelers 285/70/17 (33"?)

After changing the tires I felt it a little wobbly, maybe the tires are over inflated @ 40?

Any suggestions are welcome. Should I go for the UCAs and if yes which are better? ( I am going desert driving 5-6 times a year, so I guess I'll need those.)

I have also ordered a bedrug cover (it will come in 3 months here!!), so any opinions?

Truck looks great!
Just out of curiosity, do you have any photos of the 1” spacer plates you installed and your CV angles with them? From your front pic they look pretty straight. But if I’m understanding correctly you should have net about 3” front lift with the 1” plate + coil overs set to 2”, right?

I can get some pictures of the CV angles but the spacers are tucked up tight to the top of the coilover bucket on the frame

Here is a pic of the CV angles. Both sides are identical. It has very little impact since it's not like a complete lift strut pushing the suspension down it's just stiffening the spring so it's not as soft and then the 1 inch lift space pushes it down slightly. Hence why the CV angles are garbage like they would be with a 3 inch space or lift strut

It's from a site called mr.hoodscoop. It's a stick on so it's just aesthetics unless you wanna put in the work to make it functional. They can paint match or send it bare. The insert comes with it but not the lights. The lights are led bolts from amazon
