Done. .. Well been done. I went for a nice little drive. There is a big difference in ride. Something always seemed out of phase with the progressive/linear combo under my 2 door.
After driving and letting things settle in. The rear measures higher. About 3/4-1" which worry's me a little. The rear triple rates are a good amount longer then their predecessors. Front stayed the same at 1/4 lower. I did not have to center the front axle. Rear is pulled over to the passenger side a bit. I'll wait and maybe the rears will settle some.

A set of coils that leaves some rake instead of going nose high. I can dig that!! Maybe (way) down the road if I want to get some extra height over my tf coils these would be a good option. Glad u like them.
Yeah, I had to add a 3/4" spacer to stop my 35" MTRs from rubbing on the AEV bumper at compression. It looked horrible too...with that super-high front.
I have this same problem right now with my passenger rear, hits the AEV bumper all the time. That corner just sits low, I think the spacer is the best bet.
Mine has no weight but can see what you mean. Any weight back there would not be good.
I almost grabbed the wrong coil. The new rears are pretty close in length to the fronts.
I heard they had worked to keep a bit of rake on these new ones. I like that. Glad you are liking them over the old ones. Do you find them softer? Firm coils are perfect for slow rock crawling with heavy Jeeps but these will be much better for the type of Jeeping many of us do here...miles and hours of trails and Jeep roads, in addition to Moab trails. That is why I always liked the Synergy coils...long and medium firmness.
Do you have a winch? I'm stuck between the RK's and MC's. My buddy has the MC's with a 9K winch and isn't sagging at all, he is getting over 2.5" in the front w/winch. I am so close to pulling the trigger on the MC's but was curious about the RK's and if they would sag/droop with a winch/steel bumper.
I only have a stubby RR bumper, no winch yet.
Sitting on the bumper drops it a small amount, maybe 1/2 if I had to wage a guess. I weigh 200 lbs :thumb:
