[QUOTE="AlbertaRaptor, post: 165903, member: 2787"] I am very happy for you, I wouldn't count on it sagging down too much. Mine hasn't moved at all. To keep at factory height you could have replaced the factory second leaf with this one, but I was aiming for a higher lift. I am also experiencing the zero bump stop contact. I was more concerned with my garage and it still fits :) I am surprised you had no wheel hop, but I know too that the spring addition made my wheel hop disappear completely so you never will experience it lol. I did have a "you have to drive it to believe it" feeling as I am dead straight on washboard and my bump stops aren't even close to contacting. I am really glad you trusted in this and the results were awesome. Go middle perch now :) Jeff[COLOR="Silver"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 12:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR]KeithS one last thing. The spring guy I talked to said you can throw 200-300 lbs of sand bags inside the tailgate edge and run the vehicle like that to force the springs to sag out to whatever height you desire. I asked him as I came in about 1/2 to 1 high and he said I could do that to drop it down. Once you reach the level you want remove some bags till it reaches the right level again...continue to do this until it's correct height with no bags.
