    I had them quote me for 650 lb coils but changed my mind and went with 700 lb coils as well, not sure of the price difference (if there is one?) but here is what I have via PM:
    Like I said though I called them and changed it to 700 Lb coils

    Hey bret, have you noticed your spring not staying the same height? Think I might need a rebuild

    What do you mean Dennis? Like the preload is changing or what? Because mine have moved since I put them on. Did you tighten the little Allen screw?

    FYI the rebuilds at DSM for TW me was 60 per side remote resi and 14 inch 700lb springs were 70 a piece.

    Ok. So let's say I put a jack under the truck to lift the front. When I drop the truck back down. It sit an inch higher than it should. Sometimes it will settle down while I drive around. Then it would also sit high again. Height fluctuates around an inch or so.
