Wife hates my truck sometimes so I decided to let her pick the color of the springs. Midnight blue. Street Taco 2 1/4" blocks with 9/16" grade 8 u-bolts and QA1's.

Mine straight bottoms out on the slightest dip. I'm gonna have to do air assist so I'm putting 1 3/4 blocks till I get ready for air.

I like those rims. I had the same setup and my qa1s were set on 6. Any higher and it was too damn stiff and any lower was perfect for bottoming out ALL THE TIME lol. If you have some extra cash then I would get some air assist bags.

Good question. Now u know if u have a vibration to look at the carrier bearing and see if it's in a bind

Yeah. Flip your carrier bearing and it will straighten the drive shaft a bit. Also above your drive shaft is a body brace, cross member piece of metal with a corner of a heat shield held with a 10 mm nut. I had to bend it up as best as I could because the drive shaft was flexing and hitting it when I gun it in first gear from a dig. I just put 1 3/4 blocks and no more bottoming out and all is well.

The shocks I believe only adjust on the rebound side. Not compression. You will bottom out.
