Once i get them here are my plans.

Send them to neversatisfied and have them swap them in and give initial measurements and then drive for about a week and take another measurement.


Then by that time i should have someone that has a 07-14 truck with my current springs in it to swap to these and do the same thing.

Then woudl be sent to a 2015 up truck customer. I went with a spring about 3/4 of a inch shorter then my current one. If the test piece works out then for sure I will pay for 150 sets to be made.

yea i have the helper bags on mine

ok so what ill do is send it to him then after he tries it out sends it out to you for your feedback and then we can go from there. 00-15 is the same spring perches so i know will work on the newer trucks just want to get your measurements. If this kit works out I will just sell the rear spring with the 1 inch spacer and replace what I have now.

takes 4-6 weeks for spring manuf to get the springs done then I can ship it to the members to test. Once we have the green light takes 4-6 weeks to get the batch done just like my current springs.

pm me your full info and just to be sure

You have
belltech rear shocks
rear djm hardware kit with extenders
free travel mod

Just need you to measure the truck after you put in springs take it for ride 50 miles and shoot me back measurements. Im doing this just like I did my last springs so I can get feedback from you guys before I go on to making 150 sets. Im pretty sure will ride good just want to be sure the shorter length does not affect it to much.

OH and if you can measure how much space before panhard bar bracket on drivers side hits the upper crossmember. Thanks man
