New Lift - Too High?
My 2020 ORP w/ KDSS was sitting at 19.5” (front) and 21.5” (rear) stock. I had a shop install 6112/5160s with T13s and now I’m sitting at 23.5 (front) and 23.0 (rear).

There isn’t any noticeable reverse rake and it seems to drive fine, but I thought KDSS couldn’t be lifted more than 3” in front, and I also thought that 6112s only give 3” max lift in front. Is there something wrong?

How many miles do you have on it? Drive it for about 500 or so and see how much it settles - find some bigger bumps to work those coils on! My lift was sitting about 23.75 when first installed, down to about 22.25 - was sitting at 19.75 before, front coils are for a 2.5" lift. I've got KDSS too.

It will settle and drop an inch.

Thanks for the responses. I’ve been on the phone with Wheelers and Bilstein and I think the culprit may be the 650lb coils it came with (as opposed to the usual 600lb). Bilstein says that doesn’t make a difference but Wheelers said it will make it sit higher. Either way, I’ll be taking the 6112s down 2-3 clicks until I get the heavier front bumper.

Make sure your spring perches are not upside-down. That will lift it more than it should be. An inch is a lot of settling in my experiences with the lifts I've put on my vehicles.

Drive it for 500 miles before you drop the height - you'll be surprised with how much it'll settle out!

Sundy, thanks for the advice. It has a little over 500 miles on it at this point so I’m not sure how much more it will settle.

As for the perches, they seem to be right side up as far as I can tell.

If I get it today, it will be at least 3 months before it’s delivered (C4 lo-pro).

Most of what I've read says the 650lb coils add .5-.7" of lift
