    Not exactly, I believe that you can get the remote resi with cdc installed on non resi extended travel coilover.

    Yes, a lot of people do that when they send their CO's in for rebuild

    All depends on how hard you use them. Mileage means nothing.

    We use the bodies for other things beyond these coil overs. The issue is if you go past you are at risk of binding the coil at full bump.

    Well, that's too bad, but I can live with that answer. Too bad the guys at Toyota of Dallas (largest TDR seller in the US) didn't know that. I really like being tall. My wife hates it, but I like it.

    You can push the limits but this way you understand what you're up against in your consideration to do so!

    I'll drop back down to 2". At least now I have a real answer. Is this true with the diff drop? It might ride a little better. I blamed some of that on my E rated Toyos.

    You know, it would be handy if you would include those words in the instructions. There has been a lot of discussion on here about CV joints, axle angles, etc., and I've never heard coil-bind.

    Also, does every 1/2" of thread = 1" of lift? That's a common statement on here too. Not sure if those things really go together.

    Is there a chart out there for spring performance as a function of compression? I seem to remember that the standard Icon springs are rated at 650#, but it would be nice to see a comparison of the 650/700 graphically to see how the performance differs.

    How much additional weight can the 650's handle? If I load up with a 130# steel bumper and a 80# front skid, should I go with the 700's?
