I don’t have kdss. Coils have about 350 miles on them at this point. There was a 1/2” lean to the drivers side before the lift.

Hey Mike,

Getting ready to place an order and wanted confirm with you to make sure I got it right. Looking for 3”/2” lift. Any approximate lead time?

Front spring - C59-314

Front shock - IMS59-50574 or should I go with IMS59-50700?

Rear spring - C59-325

Rear shock - IMS59-50705

Thanks

Hmm from my experience, the recommended 300 to 500 miles settling distance is low. My 725s (i believe the kdss version of the 325) gave me more than 24 inches of lift initially. They didnt settle in LA roads till after 600-700ish miles with a few spirited routes/trips taken.

Also if you already had a lean prior, then its probably going to stay with a lift. Did you measure when you had full tank of gas?

Looks good! What height springs did you go with front and rear? Looks like 265 size tire? I am looking at this exact lift. If you have any side shots etc of the stance on the ground I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

CM- Something i've always been confused about, all the rear coil part numbers are 3**: 323, 325...

but i always see on here 725, 723, with the prefix 7.

what's the deal with that?

The coils with a 7 prefix are the same as the 3 prefix, except the passenger side coil has an additional 15mm (at least on the 725) in it. This is to compensate for the KDSS lean without needing to add a spacer.

To add to that (725 user here), I believe they are no longer listed on the first post as they are out of stock. You can turn a 300 series coil into a 700 series by adding the spacer 15mm spacer listed on the front page.

At the front, I have 302, rear 505, for a total gain of roughly 2.5" front and 1.5" rear. Yes, I'm still on 265s, provably upsizing to 285s next year.

Here is an (almost) side shot. Any other questions let me know, happy to help.

My 325’s put me at 23.5 on the drivers side and 24.25 on passenger side with third row seating. I agree that its a bit too much of a lift. I was at 21.5 on both sides before lift so +2 inches on driver side and +2.75 on passenger. I put a 15mm trim packer on the driver side and now its 24.0.

Now I have about the same rake as stock, but whatever lol.

You can use 314 coils on 700 struts for 3" or 300 coils on 574 struts for 3". 300 in 574 is more common.

Those front and rear coils will arrive sometime in November.

Lift installed.

Dobinsons struts and shocks
59-302/59-574 front
59-325/59-701 rear

Dobinsons Diff Drop Kit
RCI skid

Completed my lift. Did it myself with a buddy helping. We learned a lot. Wasn’t too technically difficult. Ride is greatly improved. Thing is a Beast! Currently 4 inches over pre lift. I expect it will settle.
