How much did that setup cost you? I’m thinking on getting rid of my spacer and just do it the right way

Can you adjust the Fox could on the truck? I just got the 2.5 with dcs. I am seeing conflicting info.

I'm interested in this as well.

Did you go with the 0-3in Fox's? I have them on order trying to find out what height they come preset at only looking to 2in to 2.25in

I think it’s a perfect 2” i got lazy and didn’t measure. I never really feel that’s accurate a well. Long story short i feel it’s perfect out of the box

Yes the 2.5 shocks can be adjusted on the truck.

I recommend jacking the truck up, and using spring compressor to compress the spring and then adjusting the upper spring mount. I do 4 rotations and then tighten everything up. After that I drop the truck down and drive it around the block and then measure.

24.14 inches from center hub to fender lip is suppose to give you 2.5 inches of lift on a 5.3L 4x4 cc LT. on the more loaded trucks and the 6.3 you’ll just have to use your best judgement.

I would start out with ground to fender measurements and use that as a starting point.

The driver side is usually .5 inches lower than the passenger side. This is called the Chevy lean. It is meant to help compensate for the arc in the road.

This punch fits the hole on the upper spring mount and works great for adjusting.

Hope this all helps.

Looks good! I debated on going that route butnit seems a waste of money if you ever plan on lifting it to 4-6inch bc then you have to buy a whole new set of coilovers.

You would not have to buy a whole new set of shocks you can install longer bottom eye shafts.
