    If I recall the flat part of the coil is the top and the rounded part goes into the seat of the shock. Man not really sure exactly how much lift. I am guessing close to 3.25" or so

    Haha yeah I know the flat end goes up, I mean the end of the coil at the flat end is supposed to be facing outwards I'm pretty sure

    the flat end should go up since the hat has to have something to sit on so it can be bolted down

    Yes we know this :p at the flat end, the coil has an end. That end, supposedly should be facing outwards

    I think as long as the bottom lines up into the shock seat and the three bolts line up on the top shock mount then you should be good to go

    thats the same camera that I bought man!!! SIIIIIIICK, if you have a PC you should check out Light Room 6...freakin awesome for editing photos. What lenses do you have? I got mine almost 2 weeks ago in a bundle for $650 with an 18-55mm and 55-200mm lens, id like to get a 300 or 400mm lens. here's a few that I took with mine...so worth the money for the quality difference

    Hell yeah those look badass!!! I bought the exact same bundle at BestBuy for $599 and got a Wi-Adapter(amazing), bag and SD card thrown in too!! The quality vs a cell phone is amazing lol.... Yeah I def wanna upgrade to some different lenses in the future. For now the ones that came with it are great. I am still testing and figuring out all the settings on this camera.

    sorry for the picture spam lol, but the pics are some examples of low aperture and high aperture, the blurry background ones are low aperture numbers and the more in-focus ones are high aperture ones

    I didnt get the Wi-adapter in mine but it was still a steal for what I got with it. the quality is just amazing even without added editing with LightRoom 6.

    But get used to using the manual mode on the camera instead of auto, it's so much easier to get the correct lighting. essentially from what I have learned with the settings ISO is the sensitivity to light, so a lower ISO is best for a lot of light and high ISO numbers are great for extremely low light scenarios at night. Aperture (or f stop is what its called I think) is the depth of field and controls the amount of light reaching the image sensor. so Higher F stops (f/9 for example) will allow less light into the "Aperture" and low numbers will allow more light into the sensor, it also controls your depth of field, so the lower numbers whatever you are focused on, everything else in the background will be blurred...so a very low depth of field and high numbers there is more of the background in focus and the aperture is actually smaller letting in less light. Shutter speed is how quickly the shutter closes and captures light and re-opens, so a very slow shutter speed will capture a lot of light (which is best for pictures at night, combine this with High ISO numbers for a brighter picture at night) an a high shutter speed takes in less light and is used for areas where the sun is out or bright light since you dont need ALL the light thats there lol.

    hope this helps lol, Im still trying to grasp it all as well...but this is what i have learned so far
