Off Road Package with Bilstein 5100's

I have bilsteins all the way around with the fronts at clip #5. Completely leveled my non ORP. Wish I had a little rake. Which way is best, springs or spacer for .5 - 1" of rake.
I agree, just did mine on level 5 and got too much height up front. Did you ever use spacers?
 
Mine was also a little high on the front. I ended up leaving it and it seemed to settle and is almost perfect now.

Based on your profile picture it looks like you got some rake going now
 
Having 5100’s put on next week. I’m going to do 3 in the front with stock ORG springs and leave the stock height in rear with the new shocks. I kinda like some rake.
 
Did mine at max setting 2.8 and readylift UCA’s, rear 5100s and daystar 1” coil spacer. Gave it the perfect stance , I like a slight rake on my trucks and don’t really like when perfectly leveled or front sits higher. Tires are 295/65/20 toyo mts and had to do 0 trimming. Rides great!!

Long shot but how did this work out? Currently a non org and having 5100 installed upfront. Wondering if I should add the org springs or not.. the do zero off roading so not sure of stiffness either with org springs.

There are two additional snap ring slots for the 5100's. On ORG trucks Bilstein says to not go higher than slot 5. You can go I believe to slot 7 on non ORG trucks to get the extra lift without needing ORG springs.
 
This is the direction I intend to go. I've looked at a '25 with the off-road package on the dealer lot, and I'm still not sold on the Hurricane. My truck has been trouble free since I've owned it, and only setting at 28,500 miles and will be paid off in 3 years. I'd like it about a inch higher for driving forest service roads and almost level.
