You want to be as close to 5 as possible. I'm sitting just over 4.5 on a leveled truck and it handles and drives great.

Depends...I was at 4.7 and 5 after my 5” lift. Steering was way too light and drifted down the crown of the road very bad. I put in the caster cams recommended on here and by Carli. I am at 2.7 and 3 and it tracks 100% better. Steering is tight. Too much caster made it feel like “super” power steering.
