    I will measure as soon as I get home! I never have measured. It was preset by DSM and I like the height so left it. I adjust the passenger side to account for taco lean just slightly and like the way it sits.

    Kings just arrived w/ 700# coils. I asked them to preload them as best they could for 2.5" of lift by taking into consideration the extra weight of the truck. I've got 5/8" of thread showing on Kings.

    The Icons I have on the truck with 700# coils have 15/16" of thread showing...apples to oranges which is why I'm asking you since you've got Kings on and our trucks are somewhat similar.

    I am quite positive mine isn't even an inch. I will measure in a couple hours for you though. Mine have also settled some since they've been on about 25k miles. I also don't have flares so the truck looks higher than it is.

    Awesome...thanks! DSM is who I got these through. Asked them to valve the fronts and rears to the truck with a preload for 2.5" lift. I'm pretty sure I'll lose some in the front but I'm ok with that. I'm just trying to avoid install, remove, adjust preload, install, rinse & repeat.

    they give you the tool to adjust them with, it's a PITA on the truck but you can. that's how I did the passenger.

    10-4. You didn't adjust when you made the move to the 700# coils?

    Here she is in all her glory! Hardshell rooftop tent from the man himself @ChandlerDOOM. This thing is awesome. I'll probably run it on the truck 100% of the time since it's streamline and not that much weight.

    The interior room is smaller. Plenty long but narrower. More like a full size bed.

    I have it mounted to two cross rails only on the camper shell rack, there is slight squeaking as I just drove it down the road. I'll get that taken care of.
