    Just installed the fronts for my ads kit. I have a couple questions......

    Does anyone else run into the issue of having the remote rest hose make contact with the springs?

    Does the Ads coilers need some break in time? Seems a little stiff/ bouncy but this is also without an alignment/ new tires and literally less then 5 miles on them.

    Did you guys keep the sway bar or ditch it?

    Ditched the sway bar and turn the resi so the hose moves away from the coil

    This. Took off the sway bar and never looked back. And you can turn the resi hose enough to clear the springs. Let’s see some pics!

    Am I missing something? I thought there is only 600 and 700 cool options? First gen different? Non-ADS branded 650lb. option?

    Yup, ditch the sway bar :)

    Im on 700 lb springs so it counter acts some of the sway. I wouldnt put mine back on and have 10k miles without it

    I was planning 700lb and removing the sway bar. I guess I will ask if 650 is an option.

    Got everything all installed today. Went with the 650 RR ADS coilovers, ADS piggy back in the rear, Dakar (the lighter ones, figure I can always AAl in the future), Dirt king boxed UCA (bushing ends not hiem), and complimented it with some 255/80 r17 Cooper ST MAXX.

    Some quick pics cause I have to work a night shift tonight but will try and get some better ones tomorrow!
