For those of who don't know what are the added benefits for these over stock. I mean at 500.00 its not a big deal to try out more I just don't want to swap them out as I do all my own mods if its not a dramatic benefit haha.


Did this get answered?

Mine are coming in tomorrow!! Then, off to Raptorkustomz for a rebuild. He's going to go ahead and install the new springs on mid perch too. All I have to do is throw them on when they get back!

Has anyone done the install themselves yet? I have been really busy so I got an estimate for install and it was more than I would have guessed. How long/hard is the swap? I've done a lot of suspension on jeeps but have not played with these coil overs yet, but to save $500+ there may be no better time to start.

Check out the write up SDHQ did. Follow the same instructions except replace the springs and either leave the perch at bottom or move to mid. Top perch probably isn't recommended for this set up.

Thank you that's a great write up, and overall shouldn't be a hard install. I will have to make some time this weekend and knock it out.

You need to do the same thing as you would to replace the shocks. So a rebuild in conjuction would be a good idea.

Mine came in yesterday. Will put them on next time I(we) have the shocks out. ROC on!
Thanks again for all your efforts @Qcfx2.

I don't plan on doing a rebuild at this point. Only have 20k on the truck mainly daily driving. I will be well versed by the time I'm due for a rebuild though!
