Does anyone have photos of the 5100s installed with 33” tires? If so, please post it and share the lift settings you used. I’d prefer to have 33” vs 35” because it’s a daily driver but I also don’t want it looking like the tires are too small for the lift. Thanks in advance!

Looks awesome! Thank you for sharing.
How’s the ride? Any difference + or -?
The ride is definitely firmer, but it rides good. I couldn't decide between 2" and 1.5" so my wife made the decision. Her Bronco has a 2" spacer lift with take off sasquatch wheels and tires. Now mine dosen't look near as bad when I park next to hers. I drive my every day for work and the 33" are giving me around 21mpg. Overall I'm happy with the way it came out.

I love this look. With all that being said. I bought some Bilstein takeoffs from a 2021 bronco 4 door wildtrak edition and wanted to install them on a 4 door base black diamond. Should I be ok or would I have any issues. Also, in addition to the new shocks on the black diamond could I also install 2 inch spacers along with the Bilstein takeoffs and have no issues? Thanks in advance for any advice and hep on this

how hard is it to change the Circlip Location after the 5100s are installed? I will want to switch to 35s when my 33s burn out and will want to up the lift at that time.

They will have to come off and be taken apart.

Is there a reason you didn’t move these to the highest setting. Circle clip 5. Thanks

I have no regrets at 1.5". I'm running 285/70/R17 Falken AT3Ws and think the wheel well gap is just about right. With 265/70R17s, it might be too much. Although the picture doesn't show it, it has the factory rake which I like. I've never understood the obsession for leveling--throw a cooler and some gear in the back and you're squatting. The extra clearance makes a significant difference and wheel travel increased too! There's still nose dive when braking but it's not a bad as before. I'm surprised that with the winch your Bronco is still level, and it doesn't seem right that one front side sits that much lower than the other. Have you had anyone look at it?

This is exactly the look I am going for. Which Circlip did you use?
