    Thank you for the explanation. I really appreciate it man. Now would this cause any issues if I just wanted to level the front end with something like 5100s w/ factory springs?

    Not at all. Just don’t mix the springs up. Just as another option for you, I’m a dealer for Cornfed Suspension. I have quite a few options for lifting and leveling. Feel free to PM call text any time. 631-202-8245

    Fair enough. Thank you again for the quick response and information. Much appreciated. I was concerned it may cause some issues.

    Installed my SSO Slimline, Warn 10S and Heise light bar. Winch has power and works as advertised. Need to run wire and switch for the light bar still. Just didn’t have enough time today with rain off and on. Still want to paint the bolts black on top of bumper, adjust the license plate (it’s bent) and make some minor adjustments as I don’t think the bumper is level. Also ordered lamin-x film for the light bar so it matches the fogs and ditch lights.

    I gave it a major cleaning. Inside and out. It was in the 50s yesterday, and sunny. I hat my vehicles being dirty. Must be an OCD thing.

    Feel free to ask

    Did you put a level on it? Based on your picture, it looks pretty level. I have the same bumper coming.

    No I couldn’t find my level and I didn’t even eyeball it. It looks pretty close but I need to check to see to be sure. I think it needs raised a hair on the passenger side.

    It’s really nice I’m sure you will love it. My only complaint is with installing the 30” light bar. I “think” I did it right, but wasn’t as easy as putting it on and tightening a couple bolts.

    Probably be a lot easier to do with a 20” bar.

    I have the same light bar. I’ve been debating whether I’m even going to bother installing it. I like the idea of more visibility on winch line as it wraps around the drum when pretensioning.
    Just have to wait and see how much sun/uv exposure the winch line would be subjected to without the lightbar in place.

    Putting a level on something that everything else is not level does not work out, doing it by measuring is a better option. This is just my opinion though, you do you.

    Blacked out badges, window deflectors, smoked 3rd brake light. I have a Borla muffler on order as well as some color matched engine cover stickers. I'll be painting the stock wheels soon as well. Falken tires in the fall as well.
    Agreed unless the truck is on a level surface the level used on the truck would not be accurate.

    And also take into consideration the lean of the truck.

    I thought he was trying to level his bumper, not the suspension? My mistake.

    No, you are correct assuming he can find a level surface to take the measurements from.

    But you don’t want to measure from the ground, you want to measure from the vehicle. Yes it helps if you have a perfect spot to park while doing it.

    Remote start installed on the ‘21 SR5. Viper Ds4+. Meh. It’ll do what we want, expandable, and decent price installed.
