    Leaking shock?

    Stock coils and eibach coils. U may be able to sell the eibach coils to a gen 2 guy..I have seen an adapter mount for the gen 1 to run the complete gen 2 shock and coil tho

    Leaking shock?

    Very little.. a little sweat like that is not that bad..I would not worry about it until it is more noticeable ..I rebuild them if your on the so cal area..finding the rebuild kit is kind of tricky..I found some at shock seals .com but the were not correct for the shock bodies..the ones for the...

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    Yeah the shackle is where the travel gain comes from..complimented with longer shocks..thinking about pulling the trigger on that bed cage now with the 16x3.0 king 3 tube..rpg says with the +2 and there extended shackle should give 17" of travel

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    My understanding is that they are a bit stiffer to compensate for bed racks and gear.. probably from more arc..I'm scared to combine the +3 with the extended shackle because I dont want it any stiffer and I dont run anything in the bed..unless I tell deaver to make the +3 just for the height but...

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    Right now I have the +2 deaver spring and if I were to put the long shackle on I'd lower the ride height about an inch they say..you will still only droop as far as the shock let's u droop stock .(until u get a longer shock)u just give up some bump for more droop travel or vise verse depending...

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    I've done a little more research and with the +2" and a stock shackle you'll sit at stock height...with +3 and a stock shackle you will get 1" inch of lift ... and adding an extended shackle to a +3 sits you back at stock height..I've been kicking the idea around of putting a 16" shock on an rpg...

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    The fox shocks rebounded way to fast for my liking.. tried to slow it down but foxes design of the bleed holes leaves no option

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    Yeah I did the eibach coils first then the deavers..the leaf pack helps a lot..I wish the shocks were more tunable. last night got the king oem replacements. Gonna put them on asap then save up for the rear ones

    Deaver +3 with drop shackle

    The amount of droop travel is going to be the same as stock if not less..it is depicted by the length of the shock.. the shock is connected to the frame and will extend the same as it did before.. you may get more bump travel out of that setup.. the +3 is a stiffer pack to compensate for bed...

    Front Suspension Rattling Sound

    Check the anti rattle clips in the master cylinder. I had the noise aswell and found the brake pads were making the noise. They are those cheap little steel things that hold the pads tight.

    Out With The New, In With The Old

    Turbos are not that complicated! I dont know why everyone is so scared of them. If u bought a raptor to tow, well u bought the wrong truck flat out! The suspension is not engineered for towing. Mechanics labor is more than half the price so of course it'd be expensive. Do your own work so u know...
