    Looks good! These shocks are awesome. I’ve been hitting all the dips and speed bumps hard and they handle great.

    I was lucky, they originally told me they were on back order, but Sergio from Redondo beach 4WP called his warehouse and made it happen! Magic!

    Did your setup ever get complete for the highest setting with the CB 2’s? Just wondering because I’m leaning this route.

    Nice, this is the set-up I'm going to run. Looks subtle and I hear the ride is best with this pre-load.

    I bought the 5160/6112 bossed out kit from boss4x4. Came with 3 shims and toytec shackles. Front shocks came built at top setting.

    love the set up! I can definitely feel the difference from on road and off road. I am glad I pulled the trigger on this setup. How do you like yours?
    My next purchase will be getting new leaf pack or add a leaf.

    Yes. 5100s felt like riding on wooden wheels compared to the ride of 6112s. Night and day difference.

    I upgraded mine fr ok m 5100s after about 8k miles then most noticeable is when hitting big bumps have not gone offroad yet but that's where they are suppose to make the difference

    Did you powder coat these after the fact or did you purchase them already painted?

    Has anyone installed 6112s at the 1.9 setting and then put 1 CB shim on them??

    I can’t make up my mind if I want 5100s on middle setting and shims or 6112s and no shim if it’s even possible. I already bought a 2” spacer leveling kit but after doing much more research on this forum I can’t make up my mind what’s best. No off-roading. It’s a 2019 CM 2WD. Only thing I do is pull my bass boat 1-2 times a week to the lake and back.

    I'm running at 1.9" with 1 CB shim on the driver's side. Do yourself a favor and go with the 6112. Forget about the spacer.

    I have an extended shackle (CB +2) so I still have some rake. Without the extended shackle it would sit level. I wanted to keep some rake since I tow.
