Hey guys, sorry this is for a 2015 Armada and didn't know where else I can ask to help with this so I figured hopefully you titan guys had some advice for me.

I am planning just a moderate lift and have the following parts already:

- PRG front 1.5 spacers to go with the Bilstein 5100 set at the middle perch
- PRG rear 2in spacers

From what I gathered if I go with no more than 1.5 lift with spacers I shouldn't get any coil bucket contact. If that's the case will combining the spacer and the bilstein set at the middle perch is that still ok?

I just want to get the most lift with what I got and at the same time not sacrifice my ride quality nor get the coil bucket contact

Let me know what you guys think. Thank you again. Sorry all the Armada forums don't seem to get much activity anymore

As far as I know setting the 5100's on the middle perch is the same as adding a 1" spacer. Just moves bucket up 1 " since the shock is extended farther. So you'll essentially have a 2.5" spacer.

Do you know if this will cause the coil bucket contact if I combine the bilstein and the spacers? I just don't want to set the bilstein on the highest notch because I heard it was a horrible ride

For a Titan, yes it'll cause CBC. I would assume the same for an Armada. I personally had CBC with a 2" spacer so I got new UCA's.

Man, I was hoping I could have got maximum height by adding the spacer with the shocks but I guess not. I got the 2" spacers for the rear, I hope it won't look too bad with 1.5 in front and 2 in the rear

Actually, now that I think about that again. I know anything more than 1.5" using spacers will get the CBC but if do the 1.5 and use the adjustable shocks for additional height isn't that a little differnt than getting a bigger spacer? I figured getting raising the shocks wouldn't affect the geometry of it?
