Rear lift.. brainstorming ideas...

[Matt]

Another idea... if it is too tall, I can probably cut down the coil spring.

Sal's had his apart a few times, i'll need to see how much extra length there is in the spring to see if thats possible (can't have the spring unseating at full flex)

Option 2 seems to be the way to go IMO. You'll never have an issue with sag or weight pulling anything you would be good all the way around.

I wouldnt cut down the springs. Id take another approach before id ever do that. Just my .02

You know I was talking about cutting down the helper springs that are on the shocks, right? I would never cut down the main suspension coil springs.

Yeah I think this is the way I'm going. There's a few things I can do if the ride is too high with the addition of the F150 levelers. But ill test out the OME HD springs with my oem levelers first to get an idea of what I'm dealing with.

Any reason you wouldn't just go with OME HD springs and the OME shocks (or other brand) in the rear? I would think the load levelers plus their springs (unless MD) might make for a harsh ride.

Because I want the rear. 5-1" higher than the front. We'll see when the OME springs get here, but I'm betting that my rear will be about 1/2" lower than my front which means ill need to make up for 1-1.5" of height to get it to sit were I want. Note that I'm among the minority.... I don't like it when they sit perfectly level and it absolutely hate when it looks like the rear is sagging.

I'm right there with you. I prefer the stock rake to the leveled look. Just FYI, when I installed my HD springs after removing the rocky road spacers I did not lose any height and it was a big difference in terms of ride quality from the stock springs (in a good way). When I replace my front spacer lift with the OME springs, I thought about doing the leveling spacer in front and cutting my poly spacers to match the extra height in the rear.
