This is great news! I would love to replace the collars on our shop truck. We do have some weight in the back when we're loaded out.

Nice! Are the Eibach front coil overs legit? I'm waiting on them to return to stock for order. Hoping to get the lift but also want good off road manners.

The ride of the front springs feels good. Actually drives over bumps better than stock springs.

Rebound and shock top-out with those 1k load springs has got to be an awful experience--especially without a load in the bed. What is the solution to add rebound dampening to the OEM RR shocks? It'll be needed.

Uhhh, one doesn't get them unless they are installing permanent/mostly permanent bed accessories. Topper, decked system, etc...

Well I plan on adding about 700-800 pounds of gear onto the truck. Alucab canopy, RTT, awning, Rigd hitch tire carrier, bed storage, gear, etc….all should be about 700-800 pounds of permanent weight. With that weight, I’ll have about 1” lift in rear and 2.5” on front.

Guys I get the draw to add heavier springs for bed loads. The condition of being over-sprung and under-dampened is going to be real.

Truck looks great.
Would love to hear more about the matte clear wrap.

Expel stealth (matte) PPF full wrap. Highly recommend if you are going to do some off-road driving. Took the truck up to the mountains and got lots of pinstripes. Most of the small to medium stripes disappeared after car wash. Just a few large ones remained but significantly smaller after wash. Great way to protect your paint from too many unwanted scratches.

Here’s a pic of the 500# rear eibach springs (only rears) with 320# in the bed.

Rides like stock.

Question...How well does that swing-out hitch work on your Raptor? Do you have to turn off the rear parking sensors with it on? I'd like to use one for my cooler/rod rack at the beach since there isn't a front receiver available for the Raptor.

It works really well.
I like the 1up because I was able to modify it to tuck all the way up to the bumper.
It holds plenty of weight, and it stays tight.

That’s what I will probably run eventually. If I need 1000 springs for the rear the truck is over the payload capacity. Big no no for me.
