I also have a 1” body lift. My springs came from a guy with a 2016 so not really new but not really old either, had around 50k on them, maybe I got a bad set. This is just my experience and yes at full droop with regular bilstein 5100’s they are loose and *could fall out. They also don’t seat properly in the 3rd gen spring seats as the 5th gen springs have a much wider base. which may not bother some but it bothers me. And as far as “weight” all is what I had before taking off the bumper was some miscellaneous tools and stuff, maybe 100lbs worth. For some members they have worked great and in my experience they’re okay for what they are, I personally wouldn’t recommend them but maybe I’m the one-off This is just my opinion and experience you don’t have to believe me but I don’t gain anything from “misinformation”

I wanted to get the real approximate lift. Why didn't you get the right seat? Slightly extended bump stops may be intelligent if your rig does that. I know I wouldn't want a coil popping out on the trail. Also I'm wondering how a coil that lifts your truck can fall out. That may happen if you were using cinder blocks to lift it but a coil?

Who are you talking about when you say "the guy who started this whole post"?

EDIT: To answer your coil question, the free height of a coil is important for keeping the coil in the correct location. If the free height is less than the amount of flex then you risk the coil coming out. Different springs have different free heights while providing the same amount of lift.

No way they can come out at full flex unless your running a long travel suspension for serious wheeling. Have you had this issue? Please clear this misinformation up for us from experience 👍

I am mostly looking for something with good ride quality that is not a spacer lift. I know there are the 5100s but there seems to be a million different coil spring options. Any recs on something easy on the budget but that gives a good ride? Thanks in advance.
