    Nice looking truck. Great idea using the solar panel as a wind fairing as well.

    After I get the bathroom in the house remodeled and the shop built here at home. I plan on getting the rear bumper with a dual swing out and shackle flip built. Then I am going to do something to the front suspension. Probably going to swap to 100 series diesel Land Cruiser OME coils on the front.

    Thanks.

    Tested it with it up and down on our Colorado trip in the flats across the pan handle. It literally made 2.5-3 mpg difference in fuel efficiency.

    Awesome! its amazing what those can do for the mileage. Tents that have nothing in front of em really cause a lot of extra drag

    The 886 coils I am running now do great with the load but I want to get a touch more lift back after the added weight.

    How much? I have the 886s as well with the 1/4in spacer sits pretty good up front. Even for being a piggy.

    Mine is at 6800 lbs loaded for the Mountains. The front end sets about an inch lower than i want it loaded. The 886 coils are 402mm @ 660 lbs/in. The LC coils are 415mm @ 720 lbs/in they should fill the gap I am looking for and carry the weight nicely.


    Edit: corrections on spring rate.

    Heavy duty are they direct fit or fab work needed? My curiosity it peaked.

    According to the provided measurements they should fit the 90001 struts. I am going to order and try them out. If I run into any issues I’ll post up. However that is a good ways down my to do list. And I may wind up going a different route altogether but that is the current path planned.
