    It rides great now but I have about 2.5" of threads showing. Not affecting down travel that I can see so I'm waiting for these springs to fade some and rebuild time to see if they need more preload when they sag. Otherwise I really have no complaints.

    ...too much shit to list.
    If it rides great don't mess with the spring rate, just spring length. The only thing you have to worry about is block height on the compressed springs to make sure you're not bottoming out the spring before the shock.
    I've got about 2" of thread showing on my tundra with a 600 lb spring rate and rides like a damn caddy. Granted shock ratio is a hell of a lot better than with your truck...but still.

    You just need V6 4x4. Instead of V8.

    It's like that old saying, "crappy wife, crappy life". Mine's gotta have a flushing toilet to get her out camping.

    Anyone interested in a set of brand new 255/80/17 Cooper ST Maxx? I bought them but don't have the funds to get my wheels and could use the money elsewhere. $690

    Selling my bestop and Custom bedrack made by @JLee. $600 for both or best offer. The bedrack is two separate pieces for easy storage. The bedrack could use a little spray on bedliner and the bestop has one small tear.
