I ordered adjustable Rancho loaded quick lifts for the front, and adjustable rs9000xl for the rear. $600 total from my local Carquest.


COMPATIBLE WITH WIRELESS CONTROLLER

 

Hey check this out looks like I'll be getting another 100 dollars off

 

I went ahead and ordered some air bags from summitracing $87 they should help out when i put my Pack Rat tool box in the back it weighs 325lbs. empty. Around 600lbs. full.

 

Did you get them installed yet? If so, how do you like the them? I would be very interested in these as I was originally looking at the bilsteins but this looks like an all in one solution. I'm also curious about the wireless programmer. Did you buy it or are planning to? I'm looking for an adjustable solution to take the rake out but be able to tow without squating. Any info would be appreciated.

 

I installed them myself, 1.5 hours on the fronts, 1 hour on the rears. The top bolt on the rear shock is a b*tch to get to. Before i put them on I measured from the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender flare and was at 4.75", after I am at 7.25" but should settle to 7" It raised the rear from 7" to 7.5". I ordered 1" rear spacers for it to get a little more rake for towing. I will put the pack rat and air bags in it when I get the spacers. I didn't get the wireless controller, and just have them set at 5 all the way around, I might try 3 on the fronts, the roads are rough around here. Overall I think the ride is better than stock, I will be able to fine tune them when farming starts back up and I start jumping pivot tracks. I think it is well worth $500. I put 285/65/18's (32.6x11.2) on it but I think it would look better with some closer to 34" I have alot of room now, it would fit 35's "I think" The only reason i went with that size of tire is because i got a wheel tire combo for $1200 and couldn't pass it up. Dale jr. Ribelle wheels and Falken Rocky Mountain ATS.

 

truck looks great. Have you had any issues with vibrations or wobble in 2wd or 4wd.?

 

Nope, no wobble, I used 4hi the other day and didnt notice anything.

 

I finished putting it all together. I put my pack rat in the back and it dropped my rear 2", damn must have weighed more than I thought. I added 1" billet spacers and put the airbags in it at 15lbs. each. Now Im sitting mabey .75-1" rake. It rides way better than stock, I was really surprised with how well it handles with the extra weight.

 

By the way If you ever install airbags, the instructions say to deflate airbags and jam them in and up through the spring. That way sucks, take out the bottom shock bolt, I took off the stabilizer bar end links also, though I dont know if it was necessary. Jack it up, just to the point that the brake line is tight. Pull the spring out and the bag drops in easily from the top. This way was alot easier.

 

Good info, nice job and thanks.
