    Mine are like that and I have a little under 2.5" of lift. It's the 13" coils:pout: I am going with 14" when I upgrade to 700#

    Has anyone leveled their 3rd gen with King 2.5 resi coilovers and rear shocks (stock UCA and leaf springs, 1" front max lift)? Can you safely do 50+ mph prerunner style whoops with this set up?

    I run mine both at close to the softest setting. I stiffen up the rear if I have weight in the bed, usually steel targets. Helps not bottom out as easy if I want to get on the GO pedal while leaving a shooting area.

    Ok, got all the goodies. Hopefully being installed tomorrow. :fingerscrossed:. After all the reading, i believe that 8/9 threads is about 2.25" of lift.

    Put mine in yesterday. I have the Icon RXT pack on option #1 and have 24 inches from fender to hub. I'll go out and measure the front in a bit, but it damn near looks level without any added preload. It's a 700 spring with adjs and extended travel. Pumped.

    The factory preload is exactly like yours. I also got the #700 ext. I wonder if i should even touch the factory preload.

    How do these alignment specs line up with others? I've got TC UCAs.

    alignment being done as well. Now drive around with stock wheels until i make up my mind. still debating over 285 vs 275. I just do not want to do a CMC. Wheels i am looking at is the RRW RR5-v or RR4-V.

    How did the install come out?

    Believe it or not I’m happy with 285 but been reading up on great reviews with 275/75 and been thinking I should have gone skinner... lots say about MPG which is a plus.
