    2020 is the same as 2019 for fitment of 5100s as they only changed some little things on the truck like a slightly larger screen with crappy and a button for the starter.

    Thanks, that’s what I figured but wanted to double check. I see some posts with guys leveling with the 5100s and running into some issues with the TSS radar, etc.

    That is something to worry about. Although, it isn’t a fitment issue per se, it may cause issues with TSS as some have reported.

    There are more 'concerns' about issues with the TSS than actual 'issues'. Most of the leveled or even lifted trucks on this forum have reported no issues. I have a 3/1.5 level and no issues. (other than the dealer saying that they will not work on the TSS when the truck is modified, so keep that in mind when you are still under warranty)

    Seems like people try maintaining a rake when lifting to keep the TSS happy.

    I figure if I leave the rear and go with the middle or 4/5 setting I should still have a slight rake and it should keep my TSS ok.

    I just opened my bilStein 5100 shocks to get ready and the washer holes are to small to go over the treaded rod, the factory shocks have a smaller rod so those washers won’t work either?
