Hey guys, I’m having my shocks rebuilt and swapping my stock springs for geisers and wondering if i should go to mid perch or low perch. Currently i am at mid perch with stock fronts and Deaver +2 in the rear and it sits level, which is what i want. I don’t have anything in the bed either. I feel like I’ve seen people saying they run low perch with Geiser springs and it sits level and some run mid perch. Does anyone have some pics or can i get enough people saying one thing or the other? I know i can change it if it’s not the way I’d like but if i can avoid changing the perch after the springs are on that’d be a bonus.

Thanks

I have the same set up you are going with and went low perch. Initially the front was at about exactly the same height as stock springs/mid perch which was about 1 inch lower than the rear on my truck.

Fast forward 15 months and 10k miles and the Geiser springs have settled almost an inch. I'll probably go mid perch to get back to level at some point.

Im running mine on mid perch. Started out on low perch but I thought the ride was a little too soft. I really didnt like the amount of brake dive on low perch either, so I went with mid perch. I have Nationals +2 in the back and the truck sits level after about 1.5 years. And Im much happier with the ride on and off road. Its more firm, but not too stiff and the brake dive is dramatically less too. I'm very satisfied with this mod.
