I already have the daystar 2.5"/1.5" but I was gonna get bilstein 5100s and FJ coils. Is it possible to run both at the same time? I'm looking for like 3.5 to 4 inches of lift. Couldn't find anything in this! Thanks yall

Am I able to put bilstein 5100s all the way around the car? Or do they only work for the front it back

yes you can put 5100's all the way around, they make them for front and rear. the fronts are the only ones that are adjustable however. a word of caution though, i would not run the daystar on top of the 5100's and fj coils with the 5100's above the .85 setting. You will run into alignment issues as well as issues with the cv angles, not to mention the stock UCA's can't get you're alignment back into spec.
 
I wouldn't use any spacers with the 5100s. The 5100s are longer than stock shocks, and when you add a spacer it allows for too much down travel. This will push things like the ball joints and CVs outside their normal range of motion and cause premature failure. Stick with 3" lift max with the 5100s. If you want more, consider adding a body lift.
 
I'm currently running 5100's all round with FJ springs. front at the 2.5 setting and 1.5 daystar rear. Currently don't have any measurements on it but love the ride. It gives abit of a rake. It works for me because I have a hitch mount carrier for my bike.
