    Got it all done! That took far too long. Early to bed today.

    Took it for a drive and no vibrations or noises for the most part.

    I do have one noise when I let off the gas at 50 or 60mph while still in gear. Sounds sort of like an exhaust rattle. Sort of raspy. I'll drive it for a week and see what she does.

    Handles great! No sway bar. Set the coils on about 1.5 and 1.25" or so. No final measurements yet. I'm going to let it settle and get aligned. Rides very nic

    It isn't on level ground in either of those pictures. She sits with just a little rake I think.

    That's what I'd like to avoid. I dialed it back some.

    Thanks y'all for your input throughout the day.

    I wasn't really looking for a full 3" lift anyway. My goal was to achieve a balance between down and up travel. I can always adjust if I want. I love that about these icons!

    Went about 60mph down a dirt road I frequent daily, smooth as a dang caddy!

    It does feel a little more floaty but I attribute that to removing the sway bar. Not a bad thing, it takes the mogul type dips in my driveway nicely now that the two sides are no longer connected.
