[QUOTE="boarder1995, post: 986134, member: 12337"] So, the added mass up front is loading the front springs to bring it down. You need stiffer springs, and possibly a slight increase in dampening to dampen the added mass and stiffer springs. Going to Geiser springs will be a big help in returning your truck to original performance. OR, going to top perch with stock springs will set you back at optimal nominal ride height (equal to likely between low or mid perch with stock front end weight). Going to 3.0 (Fox, King, Icon) will add dampening tuning and dampening capacity. It'll also get a slightly stiffer spring than stock. Again, you've got more mass up front, so a stiffer spring will feel like a stock weight front with stock spring likely - just an approximation guess though. [/QUOTE]
