do you have shock relocators in the rear? That could help. If not, go with a 1" smaller spring...

Yeah but it's still sits kinda high

Then you'll have to do smaller springs. If those are a 4", you'll need a 5" and maybe grab some 1/2" spacers so you can adjust it to be level side to side and with the front.

Question can I cut a coil off? Not sure

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

could you? yes, would I? No.

It could effect the spring rate which in turn would affect ride quality. IF you do, cut from the top, not the bottom.


I'd spend the $200ish and get new springs

Ok that's good to know I'll get some springs I'm doing it myself so I know I'll make sum mistakes.

Crown suspension 4"drop coils are you the man everyone talks about and if so what do I need to do next? I know I need to cut the bump stops bracket off. But like I said I'm not a experience and do you sell parts?

Good luck with crown.

1) do you have shock extenders?
2) what rear shocks are you running?
3),non autoride truck right?

Tell me that and I can dial in a price and kit for you

You will need to
1 do free travel mod
2 tgen I have the djm links and new bumpstops for axle for 110 shipped
3 I would move to belltech sp shocks 130 shipped

So 240 shipped for it all and cutting bracket off frame see how ride is. If still bad I would get rid of crown springs like I've done on many local suvs

if it doesnt sit low enough after you do what i said you will need to go with my custom springs.

what size tires are on the truck? i would need ground to fenderlip measurements.

on a 305 35 24 on my custom spring and rear combo it sits at 32.75 from ground to fenderlip.

32 11/16 on my custom spring in rear.

What does your truck measure from ground to fenderlip all the way around now?

if you need 1.5 more you will need new springs for sure. Try first to cut off bracket and do what I said and go from that point forward
