    ^^ im with stupid :jester:

    your angles are horrible

    plus couldnt you have just cranked the coils more rather than adding the spacer

    that how you get the front lift. you need to loose the coils or take the spacer off and tighten the coil. post the pics on f150 or search there youll see why. your coils do the same thing the spacer adds

    if i shorted the coil it would have less room to travel and it would of heated up really fast by hitting itself so much, so i can soften it up about about an in maybe

    whered you come up with the heat bs haha.

    if you crank it it will stifen it up and lift it more which will cause a rougher ride, loosening it does the opposite but if you leave it how it is your gonna be destroying the upper ball joints and limiting your travel still

    if you were going over whoopdies maybe but as you drive the coils wont heat more due to being cranked more and having less stroke.

    cant say how much tire you can fit but your wallet will thank you and your ass will too for not having such a rough ride.
