where talking at low low parking lot speeds... and for me, it was only a slight squeak when i pulled out of my drive and hit the egress of the drive and street first thing in the morning. you could hardly hear it and the windows had to be all the way down. grease them every 4-5K miles and you will be fine. i was running Total Chaos upper control arms.

Yes, the more you grease them the better they get. I know some of the raptor guys that have greased them once a week to start out with and then not had to touch them for a long time.

Has anyone added the coilovers to their 2.5 leveling kit? With the coilovers cranked down of course.

Why wouldn't you just crank up the coilovers?

I've wondered this too. Are they not fully cranked at 2.0" ?

I'd love to switch over to the Fox 2.0s, but I do not want to drop the nose at all.

If I'm not mistaken cranking them would give a harsh ride. Also I have 315/70/17's with a 17x8 -6offset and I don't know if they will fit.

I believe they are maxed at 2" but I'm not 100% on that.

They are basically maxed out at 2". I just finished installing the Fox 2.5 coilovers. I adjusted it back down to a 1" lift.

so someone could theoretically get a little more with a spacer and a pair of UCAs?

...and dare I say retain a decent ride?

Would you mind sharing how you went about finding the 1"? I'd like to drop mine to .5"
