    I got em installed on Tuesday and love em! 3.5 gave me a little less than 3” but really close. I bumped them up a tad and it’s good to go

    Can I run these if I already have a lift? I have the 4" Maxtrac spindle lift and was wanting to bump up to 6" or 7" and get better ride quality.
    Also, do the rear Vertex shocks provide lift as well?

    If you go to a 6” lift you can run the 6” lift coilovers and shocks.

    Anybody have markings on their coil springs that would indicate the free spring height and or spring rate they use in these? Called RC and they said it’s 3rd party info and they didn’t know. Wondering how these would work with added weight up front. Thanks!

    I'm on the 6112/5160 setup at the moment, but I'm considering the vertex setup.

    Does anyone know if they can handle steel bumper and winch weight without much sagging? That's the only thing holding me from buying them because I want to upgrade to 34s or 35s. But don't want to have problems with clearence with my added weight.

    Shocks don’t provide lift...

    Springs do.

    I had my 6" lift installed last week so far amazing front did sag a little with winch and bumper I need to add one more aal 1.5" and I'll be good . Rear sits about a 1/2" lower than the front. I took out rear blocks way to much

    Haven't been on here in a while. I have a 6 inch lift and got these coilovers installed from a shop. But my question is, is those of you with a 6 inch lift, how big did they measure? And did you actually get 6? My 6 inch lift looks more like a 3 I'm wondering if the shop ordered 3 inch coilovers instead of 6inch ones. They ride is awesome. I just don't like the look of how much rake my truck has. I tried contacting rough country their only reply is to adjust the collars.

    No the shop who installed them somehow made small adjustments with them on the truck. I did notice they kinda damaged the edges of the holes where the spammer wrench would be inserted. It’s not bad though, seems like they used a punch tool and maybe a cheater bar. Idk

    Well, the Maxtrac lift uses new spindles to provide lift. I'm still on my stock coilovers in the front.

    Seems like I would need the 3" or 3.5" for the front and the 6" shocks in the back.
