    Heck I was fine with my mid travel King’s with 600lb springs. It all depends how the shocks are valved/ paired with an appropriate spring rate.

    Yeah that’ll be a pretty light spring/ valving combo. Definitely beneficial off road, gonna be up to you to decide how you like it’s on road manners

    Ive put about 20 more miles on it. I can see getting used to it this way, the ride is really nice especially going into parking lots and over speed bumps. Highway cruising and needing to do evasive maneuvers etc. seems like it would be dangerous though. I still need to get it realigned although my cams are in the same spot, the wheel is straight and it doesnt pull so I dont know how much difference its going to make. No more 85mph up and down I-17 for Flagstaff though thats for sure.

    Remember to consider the actual recalculated speed for tire size. I could happily cruise mine at 75-80 indicated when I was on 315/75/16. Much more than that and it would like to wander to much, but I also have the aero of a brick. But I do agree, evasive maneuvers at speed could get a little sketchy. Haven’t had the truck above 50 indicated yet with the 37’s but I also don’t have front fenders and currently have holes in the firewall so it was a little breezy

    Ha yeah yours is quite a different beast. My speedo is off by almost exactly 10% with these tires. Ive driven about 5000 miles already this way so Im used to recalculating the speed in my head constantly.

    You can go to a Sears outlet store, there are a dozen or so around the valley. Just go to Sears.com and you can call them.

    Sears closed a lot of stores, but it is not gone.

    You may need to put some plywood and bondo on the front bumper to keep the tires on the ground.

    Got it running even better. Shifts very smooth. Still need some more fine tuning but we are on the right track finally.

    Thanks man!! Sure has been a journey. Looks so weird to walk out into the garage and see it so low since it's finally off the ramps. So low even compared to the Mazda6.
