    I think every truck is a little different, here’s what mine ended up as. I think it drives and handles fine. I ended up with about 3” up fron and 2” in the rear. But YMMV

    Had a really effective and insightful conversation with John from IronMan4x4 this morning! I was going to adjust my order and have the struts assembled, but their efficiency in filling orders right now has them already enroute.
    Really a top notch interaction!
    Turns out the order was voided but immediately reissued due to a weight discrepancy.
    UPS says product will land tomorrow by 9pm via 5 shipments.

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    Another update for you guys on the FCPs. Took her on some previously flooded and still wet roads with a mixture of washboards in the Highlands and dried up used to be puddles/potholes in the lowlands and it did fantastic. Very nice to be able to keep up a decent rate of speed rather than having to slow down for every big bump. Several times me and my dad braced ourselves expecting a huge impact and being pleasantly surprised. long as it holds up over time and continues to perform I would not hesitate to get it again.

    Wow. The comments about the weight of these products is no joke!!! Just trying to get some eye candy and I worked up a sweat!
    Setup: FCP Stage 2
    Front: 2.5" Performance Load W/ Pro Forge UCA's
    Rear: 2.5" Constant Load (Will be removing 3rd leaf to make this the Performance Load Pack)
    Current Deal included Treds Recovery Boards. They are OOS with anticipated replen by EOM. I'm sure I'll forget about them by then and it'll be like another early present!

    @Devir7 Thats the plan... Learning pretty quick I didn't bring the tools required when I move to CA from CO though... Might throw out a Hail Mary to the local community and see if anyone is feeling generous. Or next time I go back to CO, I'll drive out and put it on out there. Depends on how anxious I get and when I decide to pull the trigger on tires and wheels. Long story short, I don't know yet. HAHAH

    If you’ve read the tread, which I think you said you did, I ran into trouble getting the coils built. I had rented spring compressors from advanced and autozone and neither worked. The fingers were just too big to fit with the shock body. The other thing, the rear struts will only fit in one way. I had tried with the IM stickers pointing towards outside and they didn’t would not fit. Spun the strut around and it fit. Tried with both on the same side.
    Are you doing the ECGS bushing too?

    So I installed the Tom Wood drive shaft today and my low speed vibrations disappeared!! My carrier bearing started squeaking like a seagull last week too so I’m glad I dropped a dime on this setup. It feels stronger too probably just anecdotal but I’m happy no more of the 15-30 mph vibes man was that annoying!

    So after install I developed a ping sound while turning hard to the left... a “rotational ping”. Thought it might be CV’s. Got them both replaced and added a diff drop and still have the ping sound and a little bit of vibe from 0-25ish... dont have much more money to spend at this time... someone on a thread i started said it sounds like spring bind but I don’t know how to diagnose that and shit... I dont have time to keep taking it back to the shop either.

    Ive got no clue how to figure that out either. I know someone on here had a popping from his being slightly off center as well. I think it was @Fletcher37, but will look back and see.

    Not sure about the “ping” mine was a squeak so to speak like a seagull or birds hard to explain and it was like rotational too. After plenty of searching I determined it was the carrier bearing along with my vibrations I decided to get the one piece driveshaft vs tilting the rear and dropping the transfer case etc etc.

    I also got the ARB knockoff rear diff vent thing. Pretty cool setup and they gave me enough line to relocate it in the engine bay right near the ones for transfer case.

    Hmm you should post this video and your symptoms to the main forum here. I’ve had pretty good luck and I’m sure someone knows here. Let them know you just lifted and any other specs.
