    Do you know if it is sleeved? If so that makes it a lot cheaper. Just an overbore and new piston

    All good. Hopefully it's a sleeved head. That what I did to my 125 back in the day. 4 strokes are rough to work on.

    Question. Is it better to run a top plate spacer above the coilover or crank one side more or is there even a difference? Taco lean is horrible.

    Driver side vs Passenger side. Truck is level now.

    I would think spacer because your spring load is different this way^ prematurely ware out the spring?

    My driver side is cranked 1/2" more than my passenger side. My springs are 13 years old. Coil spring will hold memory better than leafs. No spacer. That will affect travel and can damage an aftermarket shock.

    i want to change them because i have 650s and they seem a bit stiff even on dirt.
    maybe go with 600s

    650s is a bit too stiff for long travel. You'll like 600s instead.

    Damn. I had 650s and was way too soft with my bumper and skid plate. With the 700# feels like I have my sway bar back on. I only put my skid plate when I off-road so I still have to see how that feels.

    When your dash rattles over hard pack is still going to happen. You won't get rid of that harshness feeling. You'll be making your suspension not ramp up so strong as you bottom out. Air out your tires more for the road harshness. Barstow will feel like you are riding in a dump truck.
