It came out nice, the orange is a bit off color to the Live Valve shocks, but I went through about 20 color swatches and couldnt find a fit. So I figured screw it and just did plain flat orange. If I had to do over again I would have gone Red, but it looks decent as is and will definitely be happy to live with it until I sell my truck in a few years time, or whenever they come out with a Raptor R. That is however if our new Chinese Communist Minion president Biden doesnt end up making gasoline $10/ gallon.

I will update pix of the stance and tires and wheels tomorrow when the sun is out.

Necro... Like the orange springs. Wish they would have come matched OE.

I'm considering +2's for the rear. My 2020 has always sat about level with the rear springs almost straight. With OE springs in the front, hope I don't get too much rake.

@hyrepower, looking for your subjective opinion. How do you like the ride out back and did you get "lift" installing them? Almost want to go +2 HDs as I pull a boat and would like a small travel trailer, but don't want it to be too harsh for 99% of the time. Don't really carry a lot of gear.

Travel is one of the reasons I’m trying to leave the front alone... at least until I feel the need for the fox upgrade $$$

My experience in other platforms is reducing up travel can quickly reach full suck.

Sidenote, did you do the right height calibration In the front? Not parroting others, but seems no one has regretted doing it that has, and most found relief after so.

I did do the calibration, it absorbed the bumps just OK after I did the calibration, but anytime you needed droop (Downtravel) It was a devastating thud from the shocks topping out. I quickly yanked all the live valve crap off and replaced with a full King suspension setup which is now vastly superior and rides plush as can be over any terrain
