NT05R do very well when heated up. Be careful in the rain and/or cold though.

Truck looks great. I have same kit and coilovers upfront too. How did your get yours dialed in? I’m having trouble or a hard time getting them where I want them. Getting bumpsteer, and like bouncing like riding with blown shocks. It’s a great improvement but I just can’t get it dialed in. Thanks, sorry I know it’s an older post.

Try upgrading the intermediate steering shaft, should help fix all if not most bump steer being caused.
At least replace it if you cant find an upgrade

What springs do you have on it? I started out with 800 and then swapped to 1000 lbs.

Thanks I’ll look into it. I have replaced already but doesn’t mean it was done right. The truck is an 05 but only has 55k go miles.

After I pressed send to post my question that instantly entered my mind. To be honest I’m not sure and to look. It’s the Viking coilovers from atomic. I need to see what they are tomorrow and do some adjustments on the shocks. What lb are you running? I did change out my bump stops completely.


sorry just saw you switched to 1000lb. Did that make a huge difference? I have talked to a guy that went to 1100.

I was a lot happier with the higher rate springs. 800 was just too soft for me.
