What part of Texas are you in. Come next year. I support the 50 mile run they do each year. We set up a radio station for the furthest out check point.

@Madcow2020 mind posting a picture of how thread is showing on the front coilovers.

I’ll grab some tomorrow. My truck seems to always sit much lower on the driver side so there is a significant difference between passenger and driver. I’ll take a picture of both and label tomorrow.

Now this is on a Crew Cab, LTZ, 6.2, Regular bed, 4x4, Max Tow truck.

 

It’s a heavy pig.

 

When choosing shocks use a good company that understands the weight of these trucks and will insure you get the correct spring rate. The. First set from Icon had too light of spring and too short of shock travel. These babies are just right.

 

Just a disclaimer I feel needs to be added if your adjusting your ride height take before and after measurements of fender to hub and fender to ground, and use a spring compressor when adjusting the ride height.

Thanks for these.  I went with the fox 2.5s with DSCs and cognito UCAs for the front and fox 2.0s for the rears.   They should be here this and week and hopefully have them installed in the next week or two.  Just trying to get an idea of how much i needed to adjust before putting on or if i do when i get them in.    I think only difference in our trucks is the max tow option

Ok then I would try to set them around the same. These are the settings I used to get the Chevy lean out of the truck she sits perfectly level side to side now. Do you know what spring rate you will have?

I do not   they came in today and i did not have a chance to fully inspect them.   They are just straight from fox.  Should the spring rate be found on the spring?

There’s a number stamped on the coils

They might be 16”. Inch springs on mine it’s been a while. But I for certain have in my notes that they’re 700 lbs spring rate. I don’t have a lift just leveled to about 2.6 inches of lift.
