GEN 2 Installed SVC's Coil Adjuster System

[Aaron]

So pretty much Ford wants us to run 37s.

That's the unofficial message I'm getting. I found it REALLY odd that the speedo was off until I put on 37s.

I like the sound of that! Gonna wait till I wear out the 35's, at least that is the plan right now.

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but how are you determining whether or not the speedometer is accurate? Are you using a GPS based app on a mobile device or something else to compare to the vehicle speedometer?

No worries. I'm using MotionX GPS on my iPhone and iPad.

Will 37's with an RPG 1.5" Collar keep my truck under 82"? She needs to fit in the garage...

What did you set your CAS height to for no rubbing with 37in KO2s? 2in?

Great thread, very helpful other than making me want to upgrade to 37's already and I haven't even made my first payment on the truck yet.

Was lucky enough to get in early on the list with the crew at @svc for their new C.A.S. system. Having had two gen 1's previously, the luxury and ease of the perch mod with those trucks is no more. However, it's possibly a blessing in disguise because I had always found myself wanting a ride height somewhere between mid and top perch.

That's pretty much where we ended up at on the install today. Having no reference point, we initially set the adjuster on the conservative side and that put the truck at around mid perch. I also installed 37" K02's with Methods today and there was some minor rubbing but nothing some trimming couldn't fix. So we ramped up the perch on the coilover approximately .5" and that put the front of the truck exactly where I wanted it.

I'm pretty discriminating when it comes to the stance on my trucks so right now my plan is to drop the rear a bit with some Deaver springs and possibly a longer shackle. I'll dial the front down maybe .25" at that time to keep a pretty similar stance to what I have now but just overall lower. Pretty sweet having the ability to make minor adjustments.

Regarding the ride, the truck drives and rides really well with the preload on the spring. The spring rate seems a lot softer on these new trucks so adding preload is way less noticeable compared to middle or top perch on gen 1's. I'm heading to the desert this weekend to devirginize this truck in the dirt so will be reporting back with offroad ride characteristics.

Overall, I'm really happy with how it turned out.

What style and color methods are those? They look to match the fender

Those look like the Grids in Titanium, with different center caps.

The grids and the mesh look very similar though. Only difference I can see between those two is the lip style, the bolts(silver vs gold'ish, protruding vs flush) and the center caps.
