G3 Specific Geiser Springs?

[MNLeadfoot]

I’ll measure for you in a day or two. I didn’t measure stock height but I did measure post-Geiser install height after a few hundred miles with the weights listed above. I’m now 5k miles or so after.

Perfect, I want to do just the fronts so it sits level but it seems like the geisers run a little nose high. I was hoping with the weight of the winch and some settling it would bring it down to level.

You’d need a lot of weight, I’d say about 1200-1500 lbs, to bring the front down to level with a 2.5” lift.

Dang that changes things, I don't carry a ton of weight in the bed so I'd rather not lift the rear anymore. However I don't really like the nose high look.

Have your springs settled at all after driving for a while with the added weight of the winch?

Ground to wheelwell:
Fronts ~41.25"
Rears ~43"

They haven't moved a bit, and I've thrashed them in the dirt.

Are these measurements the same as day 1 of the install? Just had mine installed and I’m measuring 42 3/4 up front and 44 3/4 in the rear.

Nope. This is after 10k miles at least, 50-100lbs in the bed, and a winch/plate on the nose.

Has anyone installed the front springs by themselves without a wall mount spring compressor?

I've done it before on another truck and will not do it again. It's sketchy at the minimum.

I paid $250 for the install and would have paid way more than that.

Just measured mine and it's exactly where it was when I first measured. I expected a little settling but not much so far. About 1500 miles on them.

I ended up paying TMX to install the front springs. Total cost for install was $460 which included an alignment. I did install the rears myself. Just calibrated the suspension with Forscan and the ride greatly improved.

Anyone running oem’s up front and Geiser’s in the rear? Contemplating for a little support for when carrying gear or a trailer. Curious as to your experience, also pics would be awesome.
Thanks
