    Next weekend I'm putting on an ARB Summit bumper and a new winch. At the moment I have 5100's, mid setting, and 33's. I plan on getting 35's in the near future, so I need another inch or so of lift as well.

    My plan was to just get the OME 2.5" lift kit with 613's, but the 5100's are like brand new. Could I just get the 613 springs and put them on the 5100s? If so, which setting would I put the 5100's at? I tried comparing the 90018 shocks vs. 5100's and can't find much info.

    I would just sell the 5100s and get the correct springs/shocks from OME. 5100s are not designed or valved for the OME springs. The OME spring will lift the truck, and the 5100s even at the first clip will lift it even more- Since they preload the spring it will ride even harder and have some tough angles on the front suspension since you will be about 3.5 + lifted. You will be happier doing things right the first time. On a positive note, I run OME on my 4Runner and have about 60K miles on the suspension....the OME springs and shocks still perform as new.

    I agree with @frichco228 - sell the 5100s and do it right the first time. You'll be much happier with your ride quality, and the OME kit will almost certainly outlast 5100s
