Default BellTech/KW Coil-Overs

I installed the BellTech/KW Coil-Overs on Sunday. I set the adjustments so the compression and rebound are both 2 clicks from the hardest setting. I drove it around yesterday and love the fact that I dont get that floating feeling in the front anymore. The wheels and taller tires front and rear brought mine up to 30 7/8 before the installation and I have them adjusted with as much preload as I can get. The fronts are at 31 1/8" and rears are at 31 1/4" which looks perfect with the BFG KDW's (265/50ZR20 Front and 295/45ZR20 Rear). I will leave it alone for right now and then do a final adjustment in a week to see if it settles at all. When I do the final adjustment I will order the Hal QA1 Rear Double Adjustable Shocks.

I hope their shock quality is better than their spelling capability.

Your truck looks better every time I see it, Joe!

Thanks for all the Comps! It really rides nice now with the Front/Rear Addco Sway Bars and the Coil-Over Fronts. I did some measurements and need to order the Hal QA1 Rear Double Adjustable Shocks for it now.

I will also be ordering another set of wheels for racing after the beginning of the year. I will have Boze make a set of 17x5 front and 17x11 rear wheels to mount some M&H Drag Radials in 185/55x17 front and 390/40x17 rear like the picture below.
