Do I use this adapter or leave it off on my bilstein 5100?

I can not find the tread that explained something about leaving out a part on the rebel so you don’t raise the front to much.
Installing this on my 2021 rebel tomorrow.
I will set the clip on slot number 5.

Do not put that adaptor in place if you have a Rebel. The Rebel housing already has a place for the 5100 circla to set in. I informed my installers and they did it anyway.
Truck was noticeably nose high when they drove it around. The geometry of the arms were way out of wack. They had to drive it around back and disassemble and remove the bracket meant to hold the circla clip in place on non Rebel trucks.

Leave it out.

Thank you for the info.

Rebel shocks to 5100s are same diameter to the seat is fine without that adapter.

I have the exact same setup. You are going to love it!

Hello,
Did you get everything installed, any pic's? What UCA did you go with? I am looking for something to level out my new 2021 rebel, so would be interested in knowing what all you installed. Thanks.

Attached is a picture if you install the circla clip on a Rebel. Geometry was way out.
First picture is with circla clip is installed. You can see the grooves for clip. Second picture is without the clip and allowed the factory Rebel pre-installed clip to hold it in place.
