Anyone know if there are any adjustable coilovers available for 05+ trucks that are stock height or lowered? Like the style you would find in a big coilover conversion lift but for a lower height... Would LOVE to have a coilover and 4 link setup if I can make it happen some how

They would limit a little travel at stock or lowered height due to the shorter coilover, but it shouldn't affect too much.

For a stock or lowered truck a traditional offroad type coilover would not work. You would end up with such a short travel shock that it wouldnt perform well. We have simple bolt in coilover conversion mounts that mount into your stock coil bucket or we also have complete replacement brackets that replace the stock coil bucket and allow the mount to be higher (ie a longer coilover can be used). Even so, neither setup would work IMO.

Is there any kind of setup that might work? The idea I have in my head is basically a 4 link coilover conversion lift setup, but for a stock height/lowered truck. Not afraid of a little custom work or custom coil overs because I think it would be a killer setup IMO. Thoughts?

Give One Up Off road a call, he has what your looking for but in a 3-link iirc.

Great stuff over there. I have some of OUO's stuff and there stuff is that best out there for suspension stuff, Dave know's his stuff.

They do have the 3-link setup which definitely looks nice, but nothing as far as coilover setups for stock height trucks which is kind of what I was expecting... maybe I'll give them a shout and see if they can make something happen
