Thanks

so about 20mm longer than stock, compressed and extended, interesting, should give almost 40mm extra drop vs stock.

Measurment taken from the bolt center at the bottom, to the should where the first washer s*** on? right?

Measurement is from mount area on stem (basically between bushings) to eye center.

then it is the same as oem...would work with the ahc lift brackets then for added down travel

@reevesci have you posted numbers ( free height, spring rates ) for the 50mm Tourflex springs ? I went back through the entire thread the other night but I may have missed them.

M,

I haven't. I think I gave those to @GW Nugget along with the the 3" numbers. But remember the TourFlex coils are designed on a "loaded" parameter of 300# minimum in the rear and a bumper and winch on the front. So, my numbers don't play well with others out there.

Yes, I remember reading the part about the 300# loaded rear. Doing some preliminary research because I'm thinking of dropping back to a 2'' lift. However, I'm also thinking about dropping my dual swing-out rear

I'm really interested to see the 50mm tourflex on a rig with 285's. I'm guessing there hasn't been enough time yet for someone to receive and install one ?

M,

It may be a couple of weeks, but I'll be putting the 2" TF on Shoroi with 285 70 17s (33.9" tall) I think @NateMob will be running 35s.

I have a few others out there, but not sure if they are Mud guys.

@reevesci thanks for the speedy shipping on the set of 2F's! Going to throw them on tomorrow evening.

It would be nice to see some pics after you get them done.

 

[Captramrod01]

I will. I'm actually going from 3F's down to the 2F so should be around an inch lower after they settle and break-in.

Mine went tall, real tall. I have the 2Fs with 35s, I can get some photos today showing it off. I'm hoping the back settles at least 1/2". 33s are going to be dwarfed by this kit.
