Ride height and SD Nationals

[Reeking_HVAC]

I messaged Jarrett about this situation because I just ordered my stage 3 last Sunday. I do some light crawling with my buddies in their jeeps so I do not want to lose any clearance. I also will be hauling my 28' boat with the raptor, so I will eventually need to get the overload bumps too.

Anyway, his basic response was this was a unique situation because the springs were drop shipped from national. He made me feel reassured that my springs would be arched at factory ride height. We shall see.

Will do Dave, Thanks!!!

All I had to do was look at your mods. LOL
Nice Blue, how do those new shocks feel is it a big difference?

The new shocks are excellent. They really dampen the ride and I like the adjustability over the stock ones. They are a nice upgrade, and i love having them,as they were a gift from Raptorwifey.

As I understand, all the national being made for RPG are now being arched at the factory ride height. I believe the rear should be about 43"? That's going from memory, not sure. I do know that it had been posted on here before.

I have a 2011 and run the HD's and there is about .4 rise in the rear. Have hauled a couple of loads starting at 1k around on the ranch. No change in almost 25k miles...

I asked for a level spring which I got... Best mod I have ever done to a truck period.

Jarrett called me an hour ago and what has happen, National sent me the wrong ones so Jarrett will Fab up a bump stop to add the missing height

Does anyone know the weight difference between National and stock?

Stock is 2 main leaf with overloads, and nationals are a 11 leaf progressive.
