Use the gen 1 top hat assembly to match. You don't need to use Geiser or Eibach springs, the rate of the oem Gen 1 spring is fine. You may want new ones if yours are sacked out or badly rusted. The Eibach are actually 'lifting springs' and you don't need that. The gen 2 fox shock is longer, so your truck will sit about 1 1/4 inch higher. The gen 2 shock does not have any perch collars like the gen 1, so run it as-is, and never ever, ever run any kinda top hat spacers or lift kits, they'll cause all sorts of geometry problems and axle cv joint bind. I really do think we all should run the weld-in Evil Offroad front limiting strap kit, on any gen 1, because we're topping out on our shocks, some the springs hit the UCA, and/or cv bind. Unfortunately, they're out of business right? Kicking myself for not ordering that kit when I wanted it 2 years ago...</p></blockquote><p></p>
