    Update: Got the Fox 2.5 coil overs back from downsouthmotorsports (King 3"x14" / 700#) and the front end rides muuuuuch better. They changed the pre-load which was the biggest help but that was only possible with these heavier springs helping with the front end weight.

    I did get a call back from Jon at All-pro and he was very helpful in answering the questions I had. The guys at DownSouth confirmed too, coils do sometimes rub the shock body and its perfectly normal for a little rubbing.

    Do you know what the spring rate was with the lola kit? How do you like the kit? would you spend more if you did it again and go with remote resis and adjustable or is it enough?
