    100% positive. The are on the lowest setting. The one at the Bottom. I have no idea but everyone says its really tall. Stock 265/70/16s


    I have no vibrations and i need an alignment i haven't done one since i did my lower ball joints, the change in ride height is whats making the noise (I don't know).

    My drivers front tire is killed from neg camber inner most is worn. The passenger side has wear but not to this extreme. I think this is why I'm having noises on the drivers side as the alignment is worse on the drivers side than passengers (just a thought).

    I can't tell from your pic but it is possible to install the black lower spring seat on upside down resulting in a lot higher ride height than anticipated.

    One side of the seat (the lower side) has a groove on the inside intended to slide over the c-clip. This feature "contains" the clip preventing it from spreading apart, popping out of the groove and then sliding down the shock body under the weight of the truck. A dangerous situation to say the least.

    If the yours is upside down you should be able to see it. Look closely up under the seat, if you see the majority of the outside edge of the clip it's a boo boo. We are talking about 2" or more lift than anticipated.

    Just a thought.

    I'm running 33 12.50s and only rub at full lock and if I hit bumps fast. Get a hammer and beat the hell out of the pinch weld and cut a little plastic. You'll be good
