Deaver/eibach combo ?

[K223]

where in Florida are you located?
looking to get mine done this week

Call Sean at United Performance in Pompano. He knows Raptors inside and out. He did my friends springs and reset the ride height on me and another Raptor buddy down here. Tell him Corey/friend of Kevin LOL sent you (mention 3 Magnetic Raptors). He’s a good guy and fair priced.

Private message me if you want further details if you want.

Interesting. I have never looked at this before. When I do this, Mine shows heights of -18mm and -16mm for the front L & R (3mm for the rears). I have stock suspension. All I've done is change wheels, and tow a few times this summer.

Just quoting myself for comparison purposes. After Eibach/Deaver install my front ride heights went up to 27mm and 30mm.

Now need to get into a dealer that will reset the ride height.

Yup that’s what you will have depending on where your parked and measuring.

Another friend locally just had his reset. And he commented right away how much better the ride is again.

Yep, just capturing my measurements all together. Both times measured on level ground in my garage. Just curious to see all 3 measurements side by side. As well as my height measurements once the front springs have settled.

Side note, I don't mind the ride at all immediately after spring install. Doesn't feel too harsh or anything, and I don't have much in the bed.

You can lean on the truck,
It can bounce slightly after braking in the garage, etc etc and you may always have a 1-3mm difference at the very least. It’s a subtle change in ride quality. And if you know your truck well. You should notice some difference now and after recalibration.

Thanks! They are literally across the street from my office. They will be installing it next week.
Did you do the Deavers as well or just the front springs? Show us some pictures.
I’m debating if I should do the leavers as well , I cant stand the RH.

That’s great! Can’t beat having a good shop right next to you. I’m sure he’s going to do it, but make sure you tell him to recalibrate the ride height.

I have only done Eibachs so far. I wanted to get things leveled out and add a little more spring performance up front. May do rear springs down the road, but more than happy at the moment.

Check out the heavily modded Raptor he has at the shop. They are doing a blown coyote motor swap over.

I will attach a pic.

That looks pretty good and leveled!
I guess I'm going wait to do the rears down the road as well.

My truck sits pretty much dead level. Deavers would make up for any short comings vs. the stock rear springs, or help if you tow heavy or carry a lot of payload as well. Otherwise adjust your tire pressure to F36/R34 cold and the truck should drive real good!

Thank you guys for the info on getting this recalibration. I tried downloading software for my foxwell scanner and that didn't work, so after reading a lot about what is actually required I called around to the local indy shops. No one could do it. I finally called the dealer who also said they couldn't do it and referred me to a roush certified dealer. That dealer was closed due to a COVID outbreak. I ended up getting my dealer to do it by supplying them with these instructions based on what you guys said:


I verified the ride height as seen above and it's good to go...Can't really tell the difference though honestly. Maybe once I drive it more.
