I installed Eibach adjustable shocks on my Diesel 3.0, the 3rd setting was 1.5" of lift.

What was the part number of what you installed? When I check the Eibach site, it only lists the 5.3.

 

Thanks

I did the bilsteins at the top level and ride and angles are good. Didn't measure before and after but I would say it is close to the 2.5 inch mark. 

I also add 2inch blocks to the back. For clarifying it is a durmax.

Did you go with the Bilstein 5100 or the 6112?

The 5100s, and I got the rear 5100s for the trailboss so they would be the right length for the added blocks. Rides firmer but a softer firm and takes out most of the front bounce the ranchos had.

Do you do any trailering?  I contemplated the trailboss lift, but I think the rear 2 inch blocks and bilsteins would be better.
