    The only reason I have the air bags is because I tow my travel trailer and they help out tremendously!! With my weight distribution hitch, I'll sit about an inch lower in the rear which pulls the front up some, the air bags give me that inch back and gives me better control in the front!

    Thank you! You've gotta keep a minimum of 5psi in the bags so they don't bottom out...if I deflate them completely, I sit about 1/2" lower in the rear so 43.5"

    I like them. I have a 3yr old and it makes it fun and easy for him to get in and out on his own.

    Yeah thats correct, it uses stock height front struts. I think the ride is much better than factory. I had factory Rancho all the way around though. It seemed kinda stiff.

    Thanks man! I installed everything myself. I did the 5" RCX lift first, and then a couple of months later a added the Bilsteins. I don't have an answer to your question though, as I never took any measurements.

    I did find 2 different close up pics of my fender well though...before and after. I know this is a ghetto measurement, but it may help. Take these pics and put a piece of paper across it to draw a line from the bottom of my cab to the bottom of the painted piece on my bumper. And you can see the difference. This estimate will also eliminate differences because of my different tire sizes.

    The 1.17" setting makes it sit pretty much level. My current measurements are from the ground to the fender are between 43.25" and 43.5" on all four corners.

    I would go with the 1.xx setting on the bilsteins. That would suck to put it on the .59" setting and it not be high enough. Since your angles are super flat it won't hurt it if it gives u a little more then 1"

    Thanks sounds like a good idea with the rear wheel wells. By the way you know of anyone running 285 65 18's nito trail grapplers that have a just plain leveled truck. I love the look but don't want to deal with having to cut anything

    Hey I was wondering if you still had your stock exhaust you had posted. I'm really just interested in the tailpipe not the muffler. I live in Knoxville, TN 37914 let me know if you still have it and what you would want for it. Thanks bryan
