Finished the new spring install, and it made quite a difference. I really like the quality of the LOD Offroad parts. Not so happy with Ford Quality... Had two bolts gall as I was disassembling the suspension, one of the lower control arm Cam Bolts, and one of the bolts that hold on the lower radiator support (the same bracket location as the standard bumper tow hooks.

Did it sag down that much infront just from the new bumper weight?

ARB Old Man Emu Medium weight front springs. they are specifically for the 4 door, but they fit just fine on the factory bilsteins.

Thanks, considering a spring change on my badlands for a bit more height after winch and gear install. how's the ride on the medium springs?

last night was the first drive, seemed pretty similar to the ride before adding the bumper and winch.

After a couple of weeks, how's the ride? I'm waiting on the Summit bumper to get here, will probably need to swap the springs too.

Ride is very much like it was before the upgrades. It has raised the front enough that the headlights are aimed to high, so I need to make an adjustment to not blind everybody
