Now that said, I have 2.5" Bilstein adjustable upfront, and 3" spacer in the back.
Since we all like pictures.

Sure next time I have it in the driveway, but it just sits perfectly level. There is little to no drop with the Active suspension on the truck.

Nice! Did you mean you used a 3mil spacer for the RAS? I thought they only came in 1 or 2 mil. 1 giving 20% improvement in suspension or 2 mil for 40%

Sorry for the confusion, I used the black spacer (quarter sized) for the RAS system setup.

My truck has a 2.5" Bilstein adjustable shocks up front and I swapped the 2 5/8" spacer in the rear for a 3" spacer and also put Bilstein shocks back there, so my entire truck sits slightly higher. Then when I added the RAS it raised the rear of the truck about 3/4" higher, but the truck rides better and sits exactly level with trailer on it. I had to remove some of the torsion bar twist with the Equalizer because it created a /\ between my truck and trailer instead of a --.

These shocks set on 2.5"

This spacer which replaced the factory 2 5/8"

Awesome! That helps a ton! Your tongue weight is similar to the one we are looking at so it gives me the info I need. Ps. That setup is sexy. Lol
