Haaa, yep, I don't blur my plates in photos..cause the 2A part of that plate should tell you I'm not messing around...

That is currently 1.625" level lifted with Eibach struts on Clip#2 (0.6") with OEM-matched 1" ORP springs in the front.
(No rub anywhere)
Full side shot...
I was always a fan of the flush look also, until I did this....
☆285/60R20 on a 20x9 with +1mm offset☆
The thread is flush to the flare edge (I added flares to my '24 Larry) and just a bit of sidewall pokes..I really like this look now!
Technically, there is 0.16" poke (0.91" poke compared to...
I wish someone would make a purpose-built, bolt-on rear "weight jack"/"spring jack"/"jack plate" for the Ram rear coils.
They are basically a threaded, CO-style spacer plate that goes under the coil spring that can then be precisely adjusted to level side-to-side and front-to-rear to balance the...
Those are long, stacked coils (on top, at least)..you could certainly wack a coil (or two?) if they raised it too much.
If the coil measures say 3/8" thick, that's how much it'll drop..or 3/4" if two.
Keep in mind that those aren't linear rate springs though, so each side would need equal...
Also excellent!
I'll set tight to what I expect will be correct height then..hoping not to have to readjust.
Gonna back off 2 full collar turns for 2.75" lift, which should give me Level lift again at +1" F/R with the rear Eibach coils.
Thanks!👍
Hey..quick question..has anyone noticed if the front PEs droop/sag after installing them and putting some miles on?
Just wondering if I should set a hair high initially if they'll settle?
Good advice!
As much as I like to plan out every detail before I start a project, I do imagine I'll have to readjust the front PEs ride height after installing them..because I'm so particular on dialing in my setup..NO WAY it's gonna be spot on, but I'm shooting for as close as possible...
Ok everyone..I talked to Dillon at Fox.
(#1) Fox factory sends the PE DSC 883-06-166 set at 3.0" lift.
(#2) ☆☆2 FULL rotations of the preload locking collar equals 1/4" of height change☆☆
(#3) Threads do not equate to collar rotatuon or height change.
Dillon confirmed for me that if I want...
Ahhh, I forgot to mention, when my truck was about a week or so old, I popped both rear springs out, cut one full coil off the RR the side-to-side level it..AND added Airlift bags into the rear coils that I run at 5psi. I'll swap those into the new rear Eibachs or ORPs also for the added...
Huh, again interesting!
I have a pair of 1" Eibach rear springs I plan to use when I pop in the Fox PE DSCs, but I also have a pair of ORP 1" rear springs in case I don't like them..I like my OEM rears, and my ORPs are matched over to the ORPs.
I got the Thuren Trackbar on yesterday..I'm sure...
Man, I wish I could get back some of my brain cells to really do some math on this..I'll try, but the years (days, and last weekend) of 🍺&🥃 seem to have slowed me down🤣
Hey, are you sure you're not at 2.0" lift??
I think Fox factory sets these at 2.0" lift.
My 23.5" is edge of fender flare to hc.
My 23.625" is compensated to fender edge (no flare) to hc.
I'm on a Solid 1.625" lift with the Eibachs.
My 23.625" is 0.375" less than your ff to hc measure.
Your...
I have a '24 Larry G/T..no flare from factory, but I added them with the new shoes.
I accounted for old non-flare vs new with-flare..flares decrease measures by 1/8"..so I'm adjusting all new fe to hc/ground (+0.125") to keep equal.
Interesting...I'm at 23.5-23.625" fender edge to hub center with Eibach 1.625" level lift.
My fender edge to ground measurement OEM was 37", Eibach set to 1.625", so 38.625" with OEM wheels..that is now 39.25" with the 285/60R20 Ascents..only 0.625" lift instead of 0.8" predicted change (33.5" -...
