using 5100s on 6 in zone lift

[jthorn75]

i really do not want to run a pre load spacer so with this kit can you just use the 5100s to achieve that lift the spacer would have given?

Are you asking if you can get 6in from just the 5100’s?

sorry to clarify i bought a 6 in kit but do not want to use the preload spacer, would the 5100s work on a lifted truck.

Ahhh...that makes more sense. I definitely don’t have that depth of knowledge to give you an accurate answer.

They should work just fine. You could leave out the preload spacer and set the 5100s to the first or second notch instead. Another option would be to use the offroad package front springs instead of the preload.

the directions say if you have ORP with preload you sit .5 in nose high and without your 3/8 in rake... i would rather be nose high... i plan to add the springs so ill be sitting there with the preload if i dont get 5100s before install... since they will work i may wait for fox to release the struts for our trucks so i can be the same brand all around
