Lol, sorry. Left that day on a backpacking trip down the Grand Canyon. With all the craziness before the trip. Totally forgot. I'll measure it today.

I'm 22.25" front and rear. Curious where the 4400# springs measure.

I'm at 23 3/4in front and rear

Ha! Thanks.

I expected to be lower, but not by this much. The first springs I tried were .5" lower than these!!

I've had this setup since 2013, and it's a bit rough at times. I think I could go back to stock shackles and 4400 springs to fix the harshness, but I'm not sure about the swaybars. I have hellwig front and back and the back one is for for a 2wd- need to call and verify fitment.

Or sell the truck. Really like new raptor.

I'm running a rear swaybar made for a 2wd.

Is your truck 2wd?

No- 4wd. There are signs of the bar rubbing the spare, but I think it only happens when a load is connected.

The 2wd bar will probably work at factory ride height.

How did you get yours so low? I'd go lower if I could. But if probably loose way to much front travel.

Had springs made by Coil Spring Specialties. The first set were 3" drop with factory rate. Too low.
This set are 2.5" drop at 15% stiffer rate.

How much front travel do you have?

~1.5 - 2". Difficult to measure it, but probably right in the middle- 1.75".

Certainly not enough to air it out over speed bumps!
