Can someone double check my thinking before pulling trigger on suspension additions?

    Hi everyone!

    I am about to pull the trigger on a couple suspension items and wanted to get my thinking checked before moving forward..

    I currently have 5100’s on the top setting up front and stock rear, so sitting at about 2.5” front 0” rear. This gives me a look I really like and want to maintain the same stance after adding a ~ 130 pound Demello front bumper. So I am thinking about adding one 1/4” CB shim to the front to add about .5” up front to account for any bumper sag.

    I’m thinking this should have me around 2.75”-3” in the front and going to add 5100’s in the back, but that would still have me sitting at 0” in the back.

    I was also going to add the CB bump stops to my order just to be safe. Agree?

    question: should I be good keeping factory UCA’s at this height? Really trying to keep budget down on anything not necessary for the build.

    Is there anything else I need to be thinking about with this setup?

    Also currently running 275/70r18’s and thinking about putting on something a little beefier, thinking.. 285/75r18’s, 290/70r18 or 35x11.5r18’s.

    currently do 80% highway driving and 20% slow off road driving at a ranch.

    Thank you so much for any input here!!
