I think the admins should buy a set of these using donations and anyone who wants to try them puts up a $600-$800 deposit to "rent" them and see how they like them. You don't return them then you lose your deposit and the admins buy a new set for rental.

...or just buy yourself a pair for $500. Won't be disappointed if you like mid perch height but want better ride. Could always take them off and sell them if you don't like them...but I don't see that happening


I'm worried my truck might rattle apart haha

It definitely helped settle down the ass end of the truck. But because it settled down, I pushed it a little bit further, which just accentuated the fact the stock rear shocks can't keep up with the front. I've heard the same about 3.0's in the back outdriving the front, but when you go 3.0's up front you're back to having the front outdrive the back. If you only have money for 2 shocks, I would upgrade the rear first, and then get the front 3.0's at a later date.

I'm going to do the whole DSC 3.0 setup sometime next year but like I've stressed I hate having an uneven suspension. The rear springs/bumps + coils + BFG 36.3's should give me a high yield on performance per $$ even if my ass end is being drug along for the ride :crazy:

From what I have gathered, and people with 3.0's correct me if I'm wrong, is that when you go to 3.0's all around, the front will again outdrive the rear. People seem to be pretty happy when they get rear 3.0's and stick with 2.5's up front for a while.

Well I now have enjoyed these springs for over 45 days now. Gone off road twice. Great off road ride with much improvement. Still extremely pleased with these springs. Oh by the way I have not seen any settling of these springs. Still at 1.75 inches of lift from stock.

Glad to hear it @mudblood! I've been enjoying mine too for a couple weeks now. Have you gotten beefier leafs for the back yet? I plan on getting Deavers next week. What's your plan?

That's accurate for light use.
For getting on it, there is no replacement for more damping capability.
