I had King 3.0's put on my truck last week. They ride great and I'm extremely happy... BUT my installer made a mistake when he was adjusting the preload on the shock. I had him raise the front end so that my truck sits level with its icon rear leafs on option 1.
When he adjust the preload, it rotated the spring around the shock body. At the base of the spring there is a small plastic looking wedge that is supposed to be facing out towards the tire.
Currently the springs are not sitting where they are supposed to around the shock body. I will attach pictures... it's pretty obvious. The result is a very squeaky ride and the shocks are not position correctly.
When adjusting preload, does the "collar" need to be aligned with something on the shock body after adjustment? Or how do I get this in line? The pictures will explain. Note the circled portion at the bottom of the shocks.
I'm headed back to the shop today to try and get it figured out.
