You want 2/3 of up travel from ride height, and 1/3 droop travel. You can use that rule of thumb to establish a ride height in the front and back.

Yes, Thanks for the info.
The way you see it, what would you do? Lower the front end or rise the rear?

I'd set the front at 60/40, and the rear at 60/40. Bust out the tape measure and see where you're at.



I only have a 1/4" of preload ring on coilover, it will not drop that much

E300-195-800 is the spring rate of my shocka d 7 1/4" top spring.

The welder located the coilover 1/4" lower than bypass, he did not level lower shock body

King makes a 3x18x750 spring if you find it necessary to lower the front.
My brenthel kit uses a 3x18x700, with a 3x4x500 tender spring, for example.
