    I used his entire setup. Only changes were some fresh silver paint.

    Not as often as I'd like to. But when I do it's no green trail at RC haha. The struts have been shot for a while. When I just replaced the rear OME shocks with the longer Superlift shocks, one of the rears were blown

    Forgive my ignorance but with the 5100s, do they limit the lift height to 2" or is it 2" + whatever the springs would net you? Cause I see that running the 5100s on 2" with stock 4.7 springs gets your right around 22", I'm wondering if running them on 2" with hemi springs on my 4.7 will net me more than 22"

    It's 2" +

    To think of it another way, on their highest setting they add up to 2" lift on top of whatever spring you have in there.

    Hey do you happen to have the Strut Part #? I see 5100's offered on a couple different jeep sites but when I called Bilstein about them they said they don't have a 5100 adjustable for my 2010 Commander.

    Ok cool thanks. That is what I have on order. Hopefully they won't take forever.
