Leveling coils not what I expected

They will settle when you put them on after a few months but should be minimal. I wouldn't say all of them stink, i've never heard a complaint but, i'm out of ideas so its out of my hands now i guess.


Primary rig is:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Sunroof, and some 32" BFG Muds .

Pictures are in!!


Then theres:
99' Mustang GT 4.6L
88' F-250 Superduty 4x4 351/c6
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 with a
3 spd column shifter. Top speed is 65mph, Go Baby Go!

Leveling coils not what I expected

well now im going to have to bring this thread up again, mike, what size of stud extenders did you get? i took my truck to midas today so that they could put the spacers in there for me. well the stud extenders that came in the kit do not fit whatsover, they are too small on the bottom and will not even fit on the stud, but the top is too small in that the nut will just slide over the extension. well i just wasted about 60 bucks. i am very very dissapointed.

Post Leveling coils not what I expected

The bolts are 3/4" on my truck. When I got my spacers I didn't get extenders so I fabricated my own by getting couplers and 3/4" studs. I have bit the bullet and have had 2 bolts cut down to 11" and have had threads run on them to fit my truck. This was more expensive than I would have liked, but will be picking them up tomorrow and plan to put everything, to include the axle brackets in this weekend.
