    I'm doing my homework on what kind of spring will work the best for my use. Once I figure out what that is I'll let you know. What kind of tools will I need?

    Mine still rides a little stiff up front...not crazy stiff. The rear just needs different springs, it rides like a classic truck with no weight in the back.

    Kriskross- Dealing with springs and lift. If I have 2 1/2 inches of lift in the front do I just order the springs to match the front..2 1/2 of lift with the spring? I feel dumb asking this.

    I think you only need 1" in rear to match 2.5" in front

    You usually don't need as much lift in rear to match front lift, but it also depends how you want to ride, with rake or bro-lean

    I just want to ride even. It looks like I have 2 inches of leaf springs in the rear. I'm taking it that that equals 2 inches of lift?

    Good thing I can adjust the front...Even though Icons cheap ass would not include a spanner wrench with their adjustable coilovers.

    That's kinda lame. My Radflos came with one, but I had to cut away at the edge so it would fit when using it.
