Did you pull measurements before and after? Can you post them if you did?. How are you liking the ride of the 5100's with a 2.5 RC? I am wanting to do something very similar but only use the 2" below strut spacer and moving the bilsteins up one setting from stock.

I have read through this forum and the 2014+ Leveling Kit forum over the past 2 weeks (surprised it didn't take me longer) and have gathered some great information. I am looking to only have a maximum of 1/2" of rack when it is all said and done. I have and the puck style level on previous trucks and the ride has been terrible. I am looking to try a different route this go around. Do you think 5100's on 2nd setting and a 1.5" - 2" bottom spacer would would create any major problems, and should it ride better than a 2.5" RC level on stock struts? I am aware of the additional wear that comes along with a 2.5"+ level but I am hoping the Bilstein 5100 will reduce that.

I am also considering this set-up. I believe I would run just the 2" below strut spacer and 5100's on 2nd setting (1 up from stock).

I recently joined as well. I have been reading for the past 2 weeks just on this one forum. I have been waiting for someone to post pictures of a Pepperdust Sierra with a level. Yours looks really good. Did you happen to take measurements before and after your install? I have been thinking about a 2" RC with Bilstein 5100's but I am gonna try and fit a larger tire.
