    Hey guys-
    I am currently running fox 2.5 IFP front coilovers. Ride is great, and gave me just the right lift height.
    Now... I am adding a full steel front bumper and a winch. IRRC, the Fox coilovers are only a 600pound spring. I am afraid the front will sag after the additional weight.

    two options:
    1) crank up the coils, but might be too much preload on the Fox springs?
    2) replace springs with higher rating.. So far I have only found KING which are rated @ 700lbs/.

    Thoughts???
    Thanks!
