    In SC, it is a 2 point and roughly a $155 ticket for improper lighting. The statue says something about "offroad lighting cannot be used while on a public road, day or night"

    Could be I need to change shocks, but I feel like I lost a bit too much lift in the front with winch and bumper both on.

    It's good for your truck, those island trips aren't long enough to burn off any condensation.

    Maybe I got used to the stiffer ride and it's just taking time to adjust. I'll def let you know if I do.

    Right. They are adjustable, but they are set at 0. I meant about the stiffer ride, just worded my post poorly.

    I was running a pair of 3/8 inch spacers on top of my Billys with 886 it’s not recommended but I did it and it seemed OK for me. longer studs were needed

    I wish, but i cant afford anything that shiny right now.

    I was thinking with the load on the springs it would be okay. :notsure:

    Personally I don’t think 550 is enough spring for that FF bumper, winch, etc.

    I’ve got 700 lb springs on my Kings and there is still plenty of “squish” for a comfortable ride (lots of weight up front on my truck). I’d ditch the clickers and get them valved correctly....just my 02¢.

    I can understand.

    I lost an inch with my 885s with added winch/bumper/skids. Sitting taller with the 886s but the ride is much stiffer, though definitely has smoothed out. I still creep over the speed bumps as work each day.
