    5100s front and back, set for 0 lift
    Dobinsons C59-300 front spring and C59-599 rear
    Dobinsons UCAs
    Driver side front and rear shims for lean correction

    Lift heights from center of hub to fender:

    Front Driver: 22 3/8" Front Pass: 22.5"
    Rear Driver: 23" Rear Pass: 23"

    No front additions for weight. 2 Row Premium with added roof rack, rear ladder and about 50 lbs of gear in a storage box on passenger side storage area.

    Alignment #'s look pretty good to me. Could probably get them a bit more zeroed out. I asked for as high caster as they could get.

    Current tires are stock 265/70r17. I'll be putting on 285s I have sitting in the garage in the spring. -18 offset wheels so a BMC will most likely be needed. I already had a chunk of rubbing in the front bumper. I pushed and trimmed that quite a bit.

    The ride is excellent. No nose dive on braking. Tad firmer but not rough by any means.

    Looks good!!

    Can you confirm the rear part number? Maybe C59-599?

    Also what rear weight do you have on it? People will wanna know in the future if you have a 3rd row, drawers, etc, any added rear weight.
