How much lower will the truck sit when the springs are under load?

I like the way you made the front spring purches with the 2" receiver in it.  It's one of the best set ups I've seen with a SAS.

So, will it be able to leave the garage or do you have to air down the tires?  ;D

Thanks!

Yeah, I know... we are going to be changing the main theme to the site soon since spring is coming up, so it will look better then.

Thanks for the comment about the front hitch, it was pretty ingenious. So far, it looks like we will be able to "sqeak" out of the garage.  ;)

Not too much lower, my truck has a small stinkbug stance right now, it sits about 1 1/2 inches higher in the back. When Nate sat on the bumper, it came down to level.

We still have to put shocks in the back. We are going with some that have 16" comp and 28" ext.

Heather, Is the front loaded in that pic? Also are you planning on running a panhard bar? If that is loaded you might have a problem with bump steer. :-/  Looking good. Keep us posted with progress.

Looks great Heather. Though went to your website and saw even more pics.

Saw one with body lift off, adding bumper, etc up front. Those shackles look like they'll be used more as a feeler. Is this just the picture or is this a real concern?

I know of several Samis with rollers on their shackles. The roller hits first and rotates upward. The bolt is the spring eye bolt. Only 1 situation when the spring bent rather than roller rolling. It was more of the undercut than anything else. Bent the main spring and the 2 longer ones. Otherwise, back on the road. Getting it home was a little tricky, kept on wanting to turn right....
