    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    Walker Evans 2.0 COs w/ 700# 16" king coils, AP UCAs, rear AP standard 3" pack, Walker Evans 2.0 rears.

    coils are a tad stiff and i think will only get closer when i add the winch. AP springs are sagging pretty bad. think i may do the Icon 3 leaf w/ the OME front/rear and 886s.

    It's nice to do that...only have to tear the front end apart once.

    True. But it's nice to go ahead and get 'em on if it's an option.

    16" coils? Damn. What are the stock length coils the WE's are designed to work with?

    I went to 700#/14" coils on my Icons, and they've worked out very well. I think 700# is definitely the right spring rate for an added bumper, skid, and winch up front. May need to adjust coil length.

    Yea if it's an option definitely do it. Though it's not too hard to swap em after the fact.

    If you have a couple hours and an internet connection, you should have no trouble. If you really really want some hands on help, lemme know.
