    lol Well let me know how you like them. And if you decide to go with 14" coils, you have to go with kings coils.

    also i think once you bump up to #700 it decreases the amount of preload you can have from 2.2" to like 1.5" I cant remember exactly but I would look into that.

    Also, it may be different for the 1st gen trucks, but I know on the 2nd gens if you order 700# springs from Icon they send you the 14" springs. Have you measured yours?

    5100s are a little different than a mid-travel coil. Especially if you are using a stock coil. If you think that’s sketch, try messin with a 700# coil on one of those dinky compressors.

    ^ also explains why you can't add as much preload, coil is an inch taller.

    They have their plus and minus...they are incredibly comfortable and 1000 times better than the stock ones! Only downside to them is they are a little short, i am 6’1 and it barely goes high enough to prevent serious whiplash, that and the bolt that holds the back to the bottom randomly unscrewed itself on the passenger side. I put some loctite on the bolts now. All in all I am super pleased with them, mighta gone for these though...https://corbeau.com/reclining-seats/gts-ii.html

    I cant remember the dimensions i needed to keep the center console, but that, if I remember correctly, was a factor in my purchase...ive had em for almost a year, and not thinking of replacing them anytime soon
