I installed my Deaver+3 leaf springs and a SVC adjustable bump stop setup. If anyone plans on installing springs yourself make sure you have a helper. If I wasn't an idiot and had someone helping me I probably would have been done 3 hours sooner. Those ******* springs are heavy. Either that or I'm getting old as ****. But everything is in and man does it ride SOOO much better. This probably should have been the first mod I did. Thanks @svc for for awesome products and even better customer service.


I just installed the Deaver +3 with Fox 3.0's and took off the ADD bump stop kit because I was tired of hearing it bang over every little bump. What setting do you have on the SVC kit and have you hit the bump stops or heard them on the street?

There was only about 1 inch on the ADD kit between the strike pad on the axle and the bottom of the bump pad while parked.

You are thinking of the lower shock bolt. If you have to ever mess with it, You might be able to rent a torque multiplier.

Did you remove the plastic nut that is below the mount? I've had the plastic break while offroading. Had to zip tie the light bar in until I got back to the pit to properly bolt it in place.

Yukon Joe :baby: :baby:

Plastic nut was removed and discarded. Used a bolt and washer instead.

Thats pretty funny you painted them. I was just in the middle of debating with myself doing that. How do you like it?

I really like the new look, it ties in really nicely with the rest of the truck. It adds just enough color to draw the eyes and accent the wheel/ brake combo.
