If I'm planning on putting 35x12.5 tires on my 2014 Outdoorsman would the adjustable 5100's still be necessary even though the truck allegedly sits 1" higher than the sport?

Dont know for sure but im pretty sure they still would as other trucks need a 2.5 level for 35's, keep in mind the settings on the bils will get you about .75" less lift then on a regular model, so the 2.8 setting will get you about 2.1 and so on

I have a 2012 outdoorsman. I have my bilsteins at 2.1 with 295 70r18. The bils at 2.1 are good no issues with 4wd vibration and the cv angles look good. With just that there was no rubbing at all. The tires are 34.2 x 12. The wheel well was stuffed even though it didn't rub. I installed a 1.5 in body lift as well and it looks perfect.

Sweet truck!

I'm just trying to get more clearance when I'm off road. I've got dents in my front bumper already from trying to cross some deeper water bars on deactivated roads.
