Norcal- I bought the 1001HK kit from you back in January. I have about 4,000miles on it now. I'm getting some squeaking/creaking from the rear/. Noise only happen when coasting off throttle. Does not make any sounds when accelerating or braking. Noise occurs coasting over bumps. Any ideas?

By rear you mean the shackles behind axle?

Hey Norcal. Just starting my research on the lowering kit options. Looking forward to your input.

1) 2018 King Ranch
2) 4x4
3) 3 and 5
4) Competitive, how low can we get it?
5) no preference

Ride comfort is important, this is my daily driver and the wife is not a fan of bumpy roads. And on the other hand, I really like crisp handleing, and really dislike the feel of driving a battleship that floats around every corner. I had custom f/r sway bars on my Audi A4 if that tells you anything. :-)

I have the Belltech flip kit with the lift hanger in the front of the leaf, for a 4” flip total. Looking at the crown flip kit the hanger goes to the rear of the leaf. Can anyone verify this? I’d like to remove my front hanger and put a rear hanger in. I don’t want to remove and go to 5”, but I need the front hanger removed due to my traction bars attaching too low to the ground.
