    Measured from middle of hub to fender.
    And measured on the shaft from bottom thread to top thread.
    You may be a little high at first if they are brand new but they'll sag about .75 to 1"

    As long as it don't shear off your top hat or deform your coil buckets you should be alright.

    Sounds good, I know with Icon and king that they advertise that there are limitations to how much length of exposed thread is considered "safe" to run. I have a few buddies who push this threshold and wouldn't surprise me if things break for them in time. Good on you for confirming you wont be one of those guys as no one wants that.

    So you've got your C/Os jacked up all three inches and still get a good ride (on and off-road)? I want to get the same set up but everyone says they'll ride terribly if set all the way to three, so I was considering getting a 1 inch body lift with the C/Os set to two inches, but this is a lot of extra money, especially regarding install.

    My ride is like a bit stiffer than the oem off road factory suspension. Very streetable and light Off road friendly. I haven't pushed it too much further but definitely satisfied so far.

    Hmm, good to know. I was stressing about this because the body lift itself is a lot of extra money. Will probably just go with these coilovers set to 3 and just see how it rides. I'm not going to be going offroading a ton either but I want something that will be able to perform decent too so I think this should be fine. Gotta do a CMC tho :/

    Nice build. Any pics of the rear? Are you mounting the rear resi to the shock body or on the frame? Also, any idea how much lift the rear AAL got you?

    The res is mounted to the shock body by the bracket fox provides. Clean.
    I'm not sure how high it is but it's gotta be a full 2" or a bit more. Hasn't sagged at all since..very tight feel in the rear while on the road. Not overly stiff but just right. Impressed.

    They are Muteki lug nuts. SR48's I believe.
    They only come in packs of 20 so you'll need to buy the 4 pack of matching locks as well. They have all colors but I thought the neo-chrome was hot.

    Hey man any sagging or complaints with this setup? I’m looking at pretty much the same setup.
    Also did 2.9” of threads settle to 2.5-2.75”? I’m looking to get around 2.75” after settling. Did you adjust to a lower setting then after settling crank up further?
