Installed ironman foam cell pro 2in lift with dif drop kit. I made the mistake of choosing the heavy rear springs rated for 440+ and the rear came up almost a full 4 inches, was hoping it would be a little more firm but sit at just the 2in lift and be able to float a motorcycle off the back without squatting. I have the torsion bars cranked up about as far as they can go while still leaving some space for play but it only came up a little under 2in, so now its sitting really proud.
Feels a little oversprung and bouncy on the road but not too bad. I'm also running just one rear passenger seat for sleeping space and gear, but unloaded I'm probably much lighter than stock.
Would lower rated springs significantly improve ride quality?
Is it possible to damage the rear shocks or other components because the rear came up higher than the lift is rated for, and its sitting very uneven?
I talked with a cruiser shop that recommended replacing rear springs with the 1.5in lift OME stock weight springs to help ride quality and height, is this my best option? How would it sit after?
Is it possible to raise the front more if I leave the back this high? I don't mind some rake but feels pretty extreme right now
Any advice is appreciated, learning as I go. Thank you
