    It took this long to realize...I'm rubbing on the two front hangy downs in front of the tires. But only at full lock.

    And throw away your recovery gear, you only need a couple spare tires and you can make it over damn near anything lol

    Outside for first smoke break, and I notice some visual sag in the rear. Will have to measure for 100% assurance.

    Guess I broke in the AAL these last 2 trips to RRG.

    Dude, I'ma be PISSED if they're already sagging!

    ...Or, I make up for the sag and bring the front down with a skid plate

    How would being lighter in the front make the rear sag? Doesn't even make sense

    The entire cosmos is out of balance because of not enough motor....

    My point is, measure it. You might be right where you started.

    I've looked out the window and thought my front end was lower.

    Next day I looked out and thought it was higher.

    Some days it looks EXACTLY the same as it was when I first raised the truck.

    Same applies to the rear end.

    Irony is, I can always go measure it and it hasn't so much as barely moved from starting point.

    I got LITERALLY no sag, front or rear, since install. None.

    Imagination can play tricks on the eyes.

    Hauling heavy loads can cause springs to settle.....So far mine haven't. I just unloaded 1380 lb pallet of R22 refrigerant. That dropped the ride height while it was in the truck. Had the weight ALL sitting behind the rear axle, much of it on the tailgate. Right back where it started once it was unloaded.

    Just don't see the point of buying over priced replacement springs that don't do anything any different that a number of less expensive options.
