Rake... Keeping/adding

MarkG said:

I have Eibach springs and Icon +2 in the rear. I just installed the Icons because I carry a roof top tent on a rack in the back and with gear the rear sagged a lot. Without the tent/rack and with springs only the truck was level, now with the rear springs and no weight the truck is almost back at stock rake with the +2 option in the rear but obviously higher than stock due to front/rear springs and I’m running stock headlocks.

The tent plus rack is 250lbs plus the gear as you stated sits around 500lbs +/- and it sags just a bit with the option 2 but nothing like had I not done the rear. Drives and handles 1000% better with the rear springs. I have to thank @Nick@Apollo-Optics for coming through and getting the springs in time to use on my trip up to Zion this past weekend.

I went with KB Voodoo Fabrications rack and although they state that the no drill clips fit the Bakflip cover, I have yet to get this to work so I run it without my cover. It works out great for me still as I am able to stack more gear as well as move around within the bed to load/unload the gear with ease. Looking back I would order without the no drill clips since Im not running the cover. My tent fits on the rack very nicely and I run it so that the tent folds towards the back creating a natural awning but it was also the only way I was able to connect the tent to the rack because of how the rails from the tent are positioned to work with this specific rack. Hope this helps or PM if you need further pictures or info and I would be glad to help as much as I can.
