    Yeah I put it in there all the way. I think because I got the 700lb coils, it's just harder to adjust at a certain point. I'm going to get it aligned sometime this week and see how it does. It's at my in-laws right now and it's super hilly. Maybe I'll have a better idea of the stance when I take it home

    You can also unload the springs a little to make it easier.

    Love your truck man, just one question. I noticed in the picture on the first page you have an all-pro rear bumper but the mod list say ATO high clearance, did you ditch the all-pro rear for the ATO or vice versa?

    Yea well I just found out that Rebel sent me the WRONG coils. They gave me 600lb ones so now I'm waiting on them to fix this.

    Oh I gotcha. I have an all-pro right now and was thinking about either selling it for a high clearance or welding it to one piece and adding some support to stiffen it up.

    Yeah I'm pretty pissed right now. Especially because it's already installed and you know how much my time is limited. This doesn't even count the whole shipping fiasco I had to deal with :mad:

    Yeah that sucks for sure. I know you had the gift card and all, but this is exactly why DSM gets my shock business.
    No planned trips for me as of yet, but hit me up if you need help swapping coils. May have some snow this weekend so might be a good excuse to head up here.
