    Just installed them on my '13 Off-Road. I like the look and it feels smoother. Some of the hardware didn't quite match up with the stock stuff so check your bolt heads etc. and make sure they're the right size. No off-road use and less than a hundred miles on them but so far I'm liking the look and feel!

    Nice. So what did you do to match the hardware? That's the first I've heard of that problem I wonder if its because yours is brand new?

    Haha yeah I think that could have been the issue. Easy enough fix though and a pretty simple install thanks to a DIY thread on the suspension section of the forum.

    Ya I saw the install thread looks straight forward now I just need a free weekend. What did u set your front billies to? Did you do it to level your truck cuz that's what I'm trying to do just get it nice and level.

    I set my c-clip 2nd from the bottom as per directions. I installed mine for a lift so I threw in a 2in AAL in the rear. It seems pretty level

    Just don't preload them too much.
    I've been in a truck with the spanner adjustable eibach/5100 set to 3" and they rode terrible.
