That's funny though, I completely thought you had a level.

It took six weeks for me and popcentator to get them. Hopefully you’ll get them sooner.

I'm getting the 5100s installed next Tuesday, replacing the UCAs too just to be safe. I'll post new pictures then.

Got the 5100s installed all around, setting 5 with the RC UCAs. Can't really tell the difference in ride quality, maybe a tad softer. If anyone wants more pics let me know. Happy with the look, I'll be happier when I get around to replacing the tires and can go a little taller. I also need some rear wheel well liners..

Please forgive me if you guys have addressed this already, but did you need an alignment after the spacer install? I am about to add some myself. Trucks look great btw.

Nope, spacers are good to slap on and drive. Just make sure to retorque them after driving 5 miles.

Nice stance (y)

I still can’t believe that rear wheel well liners aren’t standard. It’s got to be one of the dumbest cost saving deletes ever.

As mentioned, no alignment needed. Post pics after the install (y)

Just trying to double check, with all the various threads and info. I have a stock 2020 Ram Bighorn with stock 18" wheels/tires and NO suspension mods so far. Am I able to go with 1.25" front spacers and 1.5" rear spacers without having to do any other suspension or fender mods? Thanks, but there is a lot of information out there and not all of it matches up so I wanted to double check .... again!

^^^ You’re definitely good w/the 1.5”, and should be fine w/the 1.25”. Check the back of your wheels- most OEM Ram wheels have the indentations (see post #72). If so, then it’s just a simple bolt-on.

I’ve read every related post and viewed all pics and can’t decide. I have a ‘20 Rebel w/OEM wheels, tires, and fender flares. What size spacers make the tires flush with the flares and not rub the Mopar splash guards that I recently installed. I’m thinking 1” might be slightly in, and 1.5” might be little beyond... maybe 1.25”? I’m about to order the Bora.. or maybe Coyote or Titan, although I’m not sure the latter is available in 1/4” sizes. Thanks!

What do you want flush with the flares, the sidewalls or the tread path?

Received the Bora's today! It took 7 weeks from order date. I planning on installing them this Thursday, pics to follow soon.
Look forward to the pics (y)

Mostly tread, which I achieved. See post #58.
