    that can be arranged. :cool:

    4.56 is probably right where i want to be, but for a locker i was thinking detroit locker. I was talking with ocherp, he has that setup. says he really likes it.

    they're glassworks fenders/bedsides. i wouldn't recommend ordering from them unless you want a headache.

    search up fiberwerx or hanneman IMO. much better customer service so i've been told.

    I know swapping coils is quick and easy but I say you revalue first before going to a stiffer coil. You will be surprised in the difference valving will make. Coil swapping is just a band-aid. Valving is where the magic happens.

    You're going to run 700lb Springs? :eek:

    That's crazy heavy for Long Travel setups. I say re-valve your C/O & & have your bypasses dialed in before doing that. Haven't seen anyone have the need for that (especially without a heavy plate bumper weighing their front end down) :cool:

    i thought it was the other way around :confused: coil rate close,-> then re-valve.
    i asked blackhawke, the only guy i know with the same trim truck as mine( access cab 4x4 v6 6spd,) what spring rate he ran/felt good with. said 700 rate was nice offroad, just a little harsh on-road. :help:

    Your front is too soft. Either you need stiffer springs or more compression. I know it's not the same but my 700's are a bit stiff around town but float offroad

    You want to use the coil spring to hold up the weight of the truck at a desired ride height with some preload after that you want to use valving to control the compression and rebound.

    700 seems awfully stiff to me. I am not 4wd but I am only running 500lb springs and I don't bottom out on half the stuff you do.

    Sooo I know this is a bit of a thread jack.. but I was thinking about this this morning, and you guys are talking it about It know...

    I'm trying to find out my spring rate for my pro comp kit.. and have no idea how to find out. I've looked everywhere.. Im just curious.

    Sorry for the unhelpful post to your dilemma here Paden. Lol :(

    Call Pro Comp and ask them the weight of the springs.
