The ride is fine, just want to get a little lower. I took this pic before I installed everything back in Nov. The box said 4230 in big numbers but this is the only writing on the coils.

The ones I received say 140-02, does that mean I was shipped the wrong ones?

Went out to the garage this morning and toyed around a bit. I pulled off the shocks and sway bar and took out the springs to see what the other springs might do.

With the 4230s I'm stuck at 32"

I tried the McGaughy's 5" drop springs and they put me at 32.25"

Next I tried the 5305s but I couldn't even get them on the truck. Those suckers are HUGE!!

Moral of the story... 4230s will keep me where I am but I wasn't fond of how the Belltech SPs rode, so they are now off the truck and I put the bilsteins back on. My rear setup officially consists of Belltech 4230s, Bilstein HDs, rear axle relocation kit, shock extenders, Spohn adj panhard and McGaughy's sway bar relocation kit.

I think the Spohn boxed lowers will find their way onto the truck and a set of thicker sways as well. Other than that, I'm not going to do much with the rear. The front is a different story, hehe.

Oh yeah, the 5305s are for sale too.
