you might need them, I have 2” lowering springs but I also have airlift 1000’s so the rear only dropped 1.5”
This is further confirmation for me that going up 1 inch in the front and down 1 inch in the rear to level the truck is the way to go (if you're not looking to put bigger tires...which I guess most people are, but I'm not, at least not right now).
Indeed it is, I wanted a slight rake because I do occasionally tow and with the 1.5 inch drop I actually got out of my setup there is just about an inch or so between the front and rear.
I almost went this route as well. If you tow, then the 1.5” rear drop around what you need usually.
I will be towing a TT eventually but I also have the air sus so that should level me back out (instead of someone without the air sus having a "level" truck when hooked up because of the rear-end squat).
That's about what I paid for mine.
Not really needed but for the sway bar to perform correctly it should be level with the ground. I went with the hellwig adjustable end links.
Went with summit cause it was cheaper or closer to you for shipping?
Went with Summit because they're closer to me. The shipping was free but it was also the same price and free shipping on Jegs and Amazon.
Good deal! I went with Amazon w/free shipping. $301.00. Cant wait to receive and get it installed
Nice find! Mine will be here Monday so hopefully I can throw it on that evening.
Thanks! Let me know how it goes. Looks like middle is the sweet spot!
Depends on what you consider "sweet". It's the most common setting because I feel many are afraid of going to the firmest setting. I went straight to the firmest setting and didn't even try anything else.
I'd still contact Hellwig to get the correct bushing mount. Several reports of the wrong ones being supplied.Arrived Monday and installed tonight. My garage isn't deep enough to close the door with my truck in it so it was a chilly experience at 35 degrees. But that wasn't the worst of it. One of the D brackets was c0ckeyed and one of the holes wasn't drilled big enough. It took me a long while to get that sorted out. Could I have called Hellwig to send me another bracket to make my life easier? Yes. Was I too stubborn to do that? Also yes. Three hours into a 45-minutes project and she's all buttoned up. In the morning, this thing better drive as good as y'all say it will
