Any one done this yet? I'm contemplating it as I don't want a RC 6" to talk for my taste and PC lift could be who knows how long.

I'm thinking the same thing... maybe RC3" & 1-1.5" blocks in back.

I hope someone has done it

I just know the pro4x springs are stiffer. Not sure if the 3" spacer is gonna be to much..

Interested also, the 2017 Pro4X ain't getting any love.

Well the only difference is thee bilstein struts/ shocks, and spring rate as far as i know. so technically 3" spacer may be to high a 2.5" spacer might sit the same as a 3" would on a non pro4x. can someone measure there height in a non pro4x and post it ground to fender. then ill measure mine

We are waiting on you first, haha! I've thought of this option as well but like you I'm not 100% it will function correctly. I've looked at almost every option I could think of. I'm just uncertain of what to do.

Already been done, pretty sure I am the first one. Here's the set up Rough Country three inch kit with bilstiens 5100's set to the middle perch. One inch block in the rear. 2wd model.

Looks good but doesn't help 4x4 guys your sitting at 4" then. We can't go that high. Bad for joints.

Its pretty much the same as last gen so follow last gen stuff if you want to lift level a new gen, my last truck was a 4x4 2012 SV . I ran this setup on it minus the rear blocks and in the front I didnt run the three inch spacer due to the angle of the cv axles so i opted for a 1.5 inch one and it was perfect and never had any issues at all. Its going to be the same thing here.

Here's a picture of the last truck with the set up I mentioned

3" would have been fine on a gen 1 with uca. I ran 3" and had no issues over 4 years

With bilstiens 5100's on the middle perch? Mine was too much so I went with the smaller spacer. Probably the billy's that made it too much. Anyhow you should be good with the 4x4 models and using the three inch kit like mentioned not much different between this gen and last. I will say camber bolts were an issue installing them on my 17, I had to cut one down becuase it was too long and also the sway bar links kept coming loose so I put the stock ones back on and have had no issues since. They are longer than last gen so no issues.

Could I replace my factory pro 4X Billy's for 5100's? On my 2017. I didn't see that they had any for a 2017 yet.

Yes, well you should be able to I mean I'm running last gen Billy's on mine. I don't see why you would have any issues. 4K on them and zero issues.

Would that be a way to raise it 1.5 without going with a level kit? How do they ride once adjusted?

You could raise it 1" or 2" with just 5100's. The 1" setting will be a bit stiffer and the 2" will ride like crap.

It's one inch on the middle setting and two on top perch. I've heard top perch rides like crap though. I've always ran mine in the middle and have always loved it over the oem struts and shocks.

I wonder if the middle setting will put mine close to level. I'm not sure if there will be a difference because the pro4x already sits higher than a regular 4x4

Measure ground to fender well center on both rear and front wheel, subtract difference, boom there's your answer. Took 2" on my 2008 Pro4X and the suspensions are the same between gen1 and gen2 gassers.
