I got just over 2 inches, have a mid width bumper and winch up front. In the rear I just have tools and spares that I carry. The shocks are the bilstien 5100 for up to 3 1/2 lift with extended brake lines. Can run longer shocks but run into drive shaft problems. Very happy with what I have. Now just larger tires.

In looking at my options, would it be worth my time to consider the Rancho 7000mt's for 0-2" instead of the 5100 Bilsteins? I could save some $$$ with the current promotion. Thoughts?

Well, that was easier than I thought. The Rancho sale, plus a local vendor with a great price, netted me some RS90000XL shocks to go with my RK 1.5" springs. The install was fairly simple, and I came out with a drastically improved rake and lift. My Rancho 5000s were toast, so the ride is TONS better now, too.
This has me itching for larger tires, so I'll keep an eye out for deals.

what is your measurement from the level ground to the bottom of your fender flairs and from the center of the hubs to the bottom of the fender flares? thanks

So that is the RK 1.5" triple rate coils for the front and rear? I am thinking about going this route and was thinking it would be like the Teraflex performance leveling kit; the front coils are an inch taller than the rear.

I have run the TF performance 1.5" kit and lift was identical to my RK 1.5" triple rates but the TF did sag quicker in the back end. TF sent out spacers right away. Both ride very similar on the road and off. RK were actually a little cheaper because they don't include the front sway bar links that I threw out anyway.
