[QUOTE="FordPerf Addict, post: 1541205, member: 20962"] thank man! my advice is to make sure you measure the height of the truck with the new shocks on them before they are 100% fully installed. SVC recommends 10-11 threads of preload on them. the ratio for the coils is 2:1. for every half inch of preload is an inch height on the truck. i dont know how many threads of preload i have, but i didn't want to be as hard on the drivetrain and the CV joints so i wanted to raise the front a little less than 2 inches. i also predict ill be carrying more of a load in the bed in the future, so i went with option 2 and a 1 inch drop shackle (.5 inch drop on truck height). with the added weight ill sit level. also, with the front end i would make sure to get the measurements correct on the live valve system. its in the directions but there is a sensor that measures the UCA angle to let the truck know what height its at. the directions mention this but i know you have the keep the measurements the same so you don't have to recalibrate the shocks [/QUOTE]
