Here's 5100s all around. 1.75"/0". Long story short, shop didn't install 0.5" cornfed spacer. Question is should I proceed with the 0.5" cornfed spacer or should I go with 0.75" or 1" cornfed spacer? I think 1" spacer in the rear maybe too high for my taste. I looking for more of a leveled look or slight positive rake. In this pic, I can see the 0.25" negative rake from the nerf bars.

Put the spacer the body and frame aren't parallel so even rake by looks is actually negative which will be exaggerated with a trailer or full trunk. The 5100s help a ton with nose dive so dont let that be a factor

I think with Bilstein set at 1.75 the 3/4 cornfed spacer would be perfect I think the 1" is too big.

Looks great like it sits!

Can you take some front and rear measurements now before you add the spacer? I'm curious what the post Bilstein, pre-spacer results are.

Any pictures of Bilstein 5100 set at 1.75 and 3/4 cornfed spacer in rear?I just bought the 5100 for the rear and 3/4 cornfed spacer for mine. Every picture I seen with the one inch the back looked too high for my taste.

Here is 1.75 front with 3/4” rear cornfed. Stock springs. Stock size tires. I measured the frame and read .5” rake but I’m not confident in my measurements honestly. I def have some rake and I don’t haul many heavy loads so it’s a perfect setup for me and the pups.

I am shooting for.

Got my rear Bilstein 5100 and 3/4" cornfed spacers installed yesterday and couldn't be happier the 3/4 was the right call!

Thanks to everyone participating in this thread; helped me make my mind up on what to go with for my needs. My parts came in and now I just need to find the time for install.

Going with the 5100’s, with front set at 1.75, and 1” rear Cornfed spacers.

Can’t wait to finally get her raised.

I have a tow vehicle as I tow more than 5k lbs, and even if I didn’t I’m not lifting based on a once a month tow trip.
