Snap ring setting for 5100 + 880/906 coils

I bought the set from srq, under the impression I'll be able to get a minor lift while also correcting the sag. Hoping for about 1-1.5" in the front and 2-2.5" in the rear.

From reading other threads looks like folks are setting the ring to the lowest setting, but with varied results.

Just wanted to confirm to hopefully save myself some work! Where should I set the ring?

I’m running 5100s on the lowest perch with 880/906. Check out my build thread for before/after measurements and photos (link in my signature).

I got about 1” lift in the front and 2.25” in the rear (but the rear will likely settle down to 2”). I also replaced nearly every bushing on the truck with poly. That is just about perfect for me. Mild lift with some forward leaning rake when unloaded.

The amount of lift you’ll get depends on several factors.
- Factory weight? Or aftermarket armor?
- Also replacing bushings (including body mount bushings)? Or leaving old compressed bushings?
- How saggy is your original suspension?
- What year is your truck? ‘99s sat taller than some other years, so if you have a ‘99 then you’ll likely see less lift.
- Probably other stuff I’m not thinking of.

Bilstein sends a chart with the shocks. On my 99’ the 2” front 6112 setting was perfect to match up 2906 coils in the rear.

If your wanting more of a rake, just go down in the front.
