How much weight are the Moog coils rated at and did they give you any lift? Also, how do you like the KYB struts and shocks?

Before: 19 3/4" from hub center to fender flares

After: 22" from hub center to fender flares







The KYBs are a lot better than the 266k mile shocks they replaced. Ride is similar to stock, a little on the stiff side but not uncomfortable.

This is great info! I'm needing to replace my suspension system all around. Struts, shocks and coils. I've been looking at KYB because of their price and fairly good reviews. I'm not doing any hardcore off roading, just trails to camp sites and hiking spots with the wife. Coils I do want to make sure they support the weight of camping gear or lumber for my woodworking hobbies.

Did you put the Moog coils up front and the OEM on the rear?

I like the roof basket! That's the same one I have, it's an awesome one.
I've been wanting to buy the extension for it so it fits the roof a little better
