Yeah, I’ve read much of the same… On the 4x4 front shocks, 1 down from the top setting gives about a 0.5” of rake… Throw some morotcycles in the bed and you’re about leveled off.

I might still chose to go with the more subtle option and put it 1 up from the bottom which I hear gives ~1” of lift.
 
I've been thinking about going with the 5100's in the front on my truck...only looking to go up 1 to 1 1/2 inches and still have a little rake. My truck sits fairly level at stock height.

I would suggest doing them in the front and rear at the same time. True, the rears dont offer the height adjustable option (but they can accomodate a slight rear end lift if you decide to add a block) but performance-wise the truck will be better off with the firmer shocks that are in unison front to rear. Just my $0.02

I had the Bilstein HD's on my '04 Lariat and they handled great...even with a 2 1/2" leveling kit. I may end up going with the rears also to nullify some of the roll I get with the P rated Toyo's.
