Oh man, the pass through sockets are like a necessity. In the rear all I did was swap the shocks with the 5100s. Honestly, if you want the rear a bit higher just get a set of 1” lift springs and swap the shocks for 5100s. They accommodate an inch or two of rear lift.

Over last few days: second oil change at 13k with PUP, swapped bilsteins from setting 4 to 5, and paid the $700 vehicle registration tab fee.....

Did you not have a set of pass through sockets for breaking down the shocks? Makes getting the seized top nut off a breeze. Highly recommend a set for any DIY 5100 install. Truck is looking good! My first go round with the bilsteins I did front and rears and it took me about 10 hours, I recently...

@DarkKn1ght @jl13 Switched my bilsteins to setting #4 from #5 over the last couple nights. So far I haven't had the thumping issue I had before. The truck actually feels a bit more planted. I enjoy setting #4 much more than #5 after a brief test drive. The swap gets much easier the more you do...

Just keep an eye out for someone selling them locally after removing them. Happens quite a bit. Or look on ebay, i found a set of the older OEM black steps on there for a great price. $300-350 i believe including shipping.

Got the first side done last night and will finish the other tonight. I'll report back on if it takes care of the issue I am having.

How about some photos of the interior?

Those are mopar OEM steps. Started coming on the 2021's

Gathered the tools and supplies to take the bilsteins apart and reset them on setting #4 tomorrow. Also do an oil change this weekend.

Yes. You need to use the spring perch adapters on ORG trucks. The OEM ORP shock diameter is different than the 5100 shock diameter which requires you to use the adapter.

I have etorque. The start/stop is very smooth. If the start/stop in this truck was abrupt or rough I would have skipped the option right away. Although, my opinion on this would change if the battery pack goes out and my truck has to wait for parts for an extended period of time.

Not a problem. I know the clocking of my springs is pretty similar to how they were on the stock shocks. They may be rotated 1/2" but nothing major. Appreciate the input!

I have checked the UCA and spring clearance at full droop and its not close to touching. This was one of my first thoughts though. What do you mean about the notch on the lower spring perch? The pocket that the coil sits into?

Possibly. I would almost wait a bit and let the sun hit it and see what that does first.

Might have flexed weird or something during manufacturing or shipping and not adhering to curves? Double check all clips are fully seated?

The MPG certainly won't improve by going to a 3.92 but going to 35s/37s and a 6 inch lift on 3.21 gears is generally a terrible idea. The truck might never shift into 8th gear again with that setup.

Just going to throw this out there as I have seen 2 or 3 people dent their hoods removing this part when I was researching it to do myself. Pull the heat shield off from underneath the hood to cut the 4 clips accessible. Also, this is pretty obvious but don't put any downward pressure on the...

I havent purchased tires through amazon before but I have heard great things about the falkens. They're solid tires.

Sorry to revive an old thread. However, I have the ORP with bilsteins on setting #5 and get the same issue as the OP. Its a jarring thunking noise when going over speed bumps or potholes at a decent speed. It seems to occur when the suspension is full droop. At this point I have checked the...

I like PUP. Ran it in both of my 5th gens and works just fine for me. Plus its not overly expensive.
