King C/O exposed thread = Lift achieved

Guess I will crank them up a bit over kill like 12-15 turns on the bench with spring compressor, install and let them settle for a week and then crank them down on the truck since everyone says cranking them up sucks on the truck. We going to try the other direction....pics to come with install soon.

 

This guy!

 

Equal on both sides. About 2.5 of lift with 650# coils

 

^^^ Thank you and great look ride!!

I'm guessing my 700lb coils may not have the lean if i set them equal?

 

Yes they will.

I had to adjust drivers side more

 

Depends on the set up. 700lb coils should eliminate that situation all together if go equal

 

yea, i think I'm just going to over set them like 12-14 turns then after it settles, should be easier to unload them to level the truck rather than trying to crank them up higher after the fact.


initial pre-load set, about 1" of threads exposed, approx 10-11 threads. Time to install and see what we achieve.

 

sup bro, as always truck is looking good. Man your towers are so clean. Mine looks years old after one winter in ny. And I'm sure I pressure washed the truck more than anyone else that winter..

 

Thanks!
They are starting to show some wear now. You out of NY?

 

Installed! Left the sway bar off and we will see how she handles after work.

700# Coils
US Offroad bumper & winch

 

Looks good! You 2wd or 4wd?

 

4wd 4.0

They rode a little firm coming home today, might crank them down a little bit tmrw at work. Glad I don't need to crank them up

 

Give them a week or two, they will drop a bit.

 

maybe I will wait a week when I install my new 285's then do my alignment at work in one shot. That way I'm good to go for some time after c/o's settle a bit. thanks for the heads up

 

Per say according to Kings: 4 exposed threads equal 1/2" of lift.

My pic since everyone is posting there's: 650 lbs springs with adjusters


BTW I have the Headstrong spacer for the taco lean. 2.5" of lift in the front

 

i set both mine at about 10-11 threads showing, not seeing any lean yet, maybe its the heavy springs.......Steering also feels alot lighter since removing sway bar, or just my imagination......

 

What kind of spring compressor is that?

 

This

 

I work at a BMW dealer (special tool), was almost able to turn collar by hand after squishing the spring down. Worked perfect

 

Rajah. Thanks
