Skyjacker FR904S... why just deaver?

[Raptizzle]

If you get the +1 deavers and put them on the block then you get the rear 1inch higher than stock, that's what I did. Subtle, but you can see it compared to stock

This setup will put you WELL over stock. The +1 deavers are only 1" under stock height. That lift block is big.

thank you!

BTW an FYI here:

My front height is 39" and rear currently is 41.5"

I'm surprised the front is so much lower than everyone elses measurements

My rear is 43 with no weight and 41 with 300-400 lbs in the bed. I have the national springs and it sags way to much with any weight. Mind you I measured it in zero degree temps and I am sure the steel doesn't like the Cold

Full tank of fuel too?

Full tank and 500lbs in friends ( don't have skinny friends )

I think HD springs are the way to go. I like the fact that there are 2 options. jarrett was helpful and personally explained The 2 choices to me..

INI,



This pick is of RaptorAddicts truck which carries a constant additional weight of 500-600lbs in the bed of his truck at all times. He opted to go with the HD springs for this very reason.

This pic was taken with a full load of fuel,his rear bed cage with two generals, tools and jack.

We have had up too 1400+ pounds of leafs in the bed of our truck and she popped right back up after unloading. Last time out testing I had two tires, full fuel and tools in my truck and the extra weight really helped the balance of the truck. The rear-end felt even more planted and was more compossed than it normally was without the extra spare.

If you could take messurments now that you are back home and let me know that would be great. If you take lots of long trips and are carrying 400lbs for long periods of time you might be the perfect canidate for the HD versions.

The whole purpose of the Standard Duty spring is for the client who has an empty bed or very minimal weight 90% of the time. This doesn't mean you cant load it up from time to time, just know, the design objective is geared more towards this application.

Lets put 400lbs into perspective. That is almost throwing the equivelant of putting 4 37inch BFG Projects in the bed of the truck. 2" of drop is right in line with what National Designed the standard duty for.

Shoot me a PM if you would like to discuss the HD version.

Like most in the past, I have seen what looks like a DEAL that’s too good to pass up and jumped at it because it looked great on paper. Then come to realize I ended spending more in the end to get the setup right when I should have just done it right the first time.

I've spent thousands to learn this!
