    My 885's with trim packer only sit level with my dakars when I'm loaded with 700 lbs in the bed.

    Yeah, that's what I was expecting as well. I'm curious if the spring manufacturer stamps the part at all. Curious if these may be 886 that were labeled wrong.

    Either that or I've managed to install the springs incorrectly. Not sure how that's possible as we I've installed springs and coil overs plenty of times....but ya never know.

    I probably have close to a factory rake with just my leer topper on, but I usually carry around 400 to 450 lbs in the bed. I still have a 1 inch rake or so with that weight.

    My truck with 886 springs no trim packer and dakars in the back. I have no weight in the rear of the bed, or any additional weight in the front (stock bumper was removed, only crush bar is there)

    Just for a reference pic of what it look like with 886's. Also, my CV's didn't look that bad.

    Well think about it . The truck has about 1 1/2"-2" of rake stock . Lifting 3" in front and 2 3/4"-3" out back means you are going to essentially retain stock rake only 3" higher

    You can pull a leaf out of the Dakars and / or remove the upper overload

    Do you carry weight or tow ?

    Level is over~rated IMO anyway
