    Top notch on the stock front springs?
    How is the ride with the stock coils preloaded?

    Thank you sleekride for the nice comment and picture. Cheap $5 knob fix.
    " Just got them. Had no idea such a small item could have that significant of an impact in functionality. Great work."

    The front has 5100s and the stock springs, the rear is 5100 extended with Dakars. The pick is a little deceiving because of the slope and that rock. I got 2 inches of lift in the front and 3 inches in the rear, which makes the rear 2 inches taller than the front. This is what I wanted though, because I found out that when the truck was loaded up a bit on stock suspension it leveled out and bottomed out. Since I will be loading it heavier for traveling it should level out and it should be able to handle it without bottoming.

    I put a similar dent in my hood while installing Redline hood struts. The drill bit went through and put a outward dent on the hood. I took a ball pien (sp?) Hammer and a piece of coth, used the round side of the hammer, and lightly tapped the dent back in. I really have to look for it to see it now.

    Installed Lamin-x yellow film today around 11 its now about 630 and I've been driving with them on to hear them up so they would flatten out. As you can see no dice .. yet. I'm wondering if this is normal?

    I thought people used a hair dryer at installation to heat shrink them on. Like them but haven't tried them yet.
