First off thanks to Trevor at PMF. Appreciate the walk through and great service on a Saturday afternoon.

Ordered 2.5" Icon coils. I'm already running 5100 bilsteins for a 3" lift. Just need drop brackets (waitin on a reply) and I'm ready to go up! My first mod on the truck so I'm pretty excited.

i could never find a dual hoop for a non lifted truck. all the dual hoops out there are for a 4" lift or greater. I might have to look into fabbing something up someday. who knows, my factory coils could be bottomed out and causin my ride to be horrible that after swappin these in, i might be fine w/ my 5100's... until I wanna go to piggy backs. lol. damn modding addiction.

Lmao. I need a stabilizer next. Then our ladders. Got my list in my Notes on my phone haha

How does it ride now? Noticeable difference?

Night and day wouldn't even be close of a description. Body is cut down by at least 50%. Front end is so smooth, both at highway and through the neighborhood. I'm very pleased w/ the kit. Even my wife noticed how well the ride improved... To the point where she WANTS to take it now.

Just gotta thank Trevor again at PMF. I called a few times during my install and he was great! I appreciate all the help. And thanks to all for the compliments. Love my truck even more now.

so it didn't do lift the rear at all? i'm wanting to go up 2.5" inches in the front maintain the factory rake. so probably do a 5.5 block in the rear or add a leaf.

Doing a 2.5" setup up front with F-350 blocks is going to be pretty level. I assume level is what he wanted. F-350 rear blocks are 3 5/8", so you wouldn't have as much rake as you have now with 5.5" blocks but it would be pretty close. Less than 3/4" difference.
