SuperStock Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Never thought I would be posting up in this section , but the time has come. I'm sure some of you have been following my last post with the Fast intake and stall converter installation. But since then it hasn't stopped so here it goes. I have not driven it since these upgrades so I do not know how much of a difference it has made. I want to thank WICKEDOWESIX and CHPSPECIAL for all the help thought this entire build.

SuperStock Posted August 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Coils are installed thanks to wickedowesix, just needs an alignment than I can post my review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKSSS Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Very cool! What did you end up with for ride height? Stock or did it lower it with those springs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperStock Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) I need to take some new measurements on the current height, I had a lot of old parts in my bed so I will post of the current height. Before the coils went on I had lowered the front 1/2". Depending on which qa1 you get you can either keep it close to stock or lower it. The aq1's that I ordered are suppose to keep it about 34.5" but I went a little lower than that. Before Lowering(Stock) After Lowering ( Torsion Keys Lowered & Rear Shackles) After Coils (Front Coils & Rear Shackles) FL:35" FL:34.5" FL:? FR:35" FR:34.5" FR: ? RL:36.5" RL:35" RL:?

AKSSS Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Awesome. I'm hoping to drop my 2" in the front and 3-4 in the back. I have my coil over kit sitting in the shop. All that's left to get is the shocks. What do you think of the ride? Any diffrence? Handling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that's left to get is the shocks. What do you think of the ride? Any diffrence? Handling? I think the ride is awesome, definitely a big difference. It just feels so much smoother of a drive. Something I wish I did awhile ago. It rides some much better in the front I notice the harsh ride in the rear. So far the handling feels good but I have not really got into it around any turns or anything to aggressive. I would like to do the ride tech rear bag kit next to really get a better ride and better handling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
