Had some new Progressive rate Spring made

Will using these while on mid perch be harmful in the same way a leveling kit is because of the out of tolerance angles on cv joints etc?? 2013 and above models specifically.

Yes, that's what the census is thinking. Now the question is whether these springs can be ran on bottom perch... and what effects that will have? If any?

If my memory serves me correctly I think it even says these springs are supposed to be installed on bottom perch...

I've been running these springs on my 2013 at the mid-perch for about a year now, I haven't have any issue with the CVs or w/ the springs settling.

How do you like the ride? On and off-road?

I like how they ride both on and offroad & I also like the ride height. I installed these coils along with the stage 3 rear kit from RPG the first week I owned the truck. I've run National rear springs and custom progressive rate coilss on other trucks I have owned so I was glad to find these.

Ok, so I just went and talked to the dude at UTV about these springs. He said he loved them. He said one of the best benefits were the rebound, and how the new progressive springs would not "pop-go" on bumps. HE said on and off-road was smooth.

He just recently took them off for 3.0s and if he's honest, doesn't like the ride as much as he did with his stock shocks and springs. If he had to do it all over again, he'd go back to his springs and the stock shocks. Said the 3.0s are too rough of a ride....and thats for both major Raptor 3.0 upgrades. (I'm keeping the 3.0 names out of it).

So as i suspected, and I'm sure anyone with 3.0s will disagree, but of course you have to fall in love with the 3.0s, you paid $5000...lol.

So short story, I will be getting these springs very soon. He also said if I don't like them, just return them, he's that confident in his springs for these trucks.
