I just installed the 5100 adjustable fronts and 5125 rears 2 weeks ago. I have a 04 F150 w/6" lift...ill try to figure out how to post the pics...i put them on the 2" setting and to me they ride rough over smaller bumps (kinda jars the truck) but is smooth over longer rolling bumps if that makes sense?
