Sway Away Suspension lift installation

[Run'n'Gun]

good luck. If you have any questions during the install let me know.

Did the install today by myself in 4 hours. This includes getting the ride height close and replacing one of the tie rod ends (messed up the threads... GRRR).

Overall it went very well. First ride impressions are positive. It's firmer without being jarring. Handling is improved at speed. Sway in corners is reduced quite a bit, comming from a non-XREAS 'runner.

I've reduced preload to set the height for a 3/8" rake from front to rear.

Overall I'm quite satisfied! One expensive leveling kit with added handling benefits.

hey where did you get those wheel spacers at? do they push your wheels out a decet amount, i hae 285s and im thinking with the lift that may be pretty kick ass

They are from www.Spidertrax.com
If you have a 4th gen you need the hub centric version. Each space is 1.25 inches so it widens your wheelbase by 2.5". They are pretty cheap at 99 bucks a pair and have been great so far. I've had them on for about a year.

i have the same lift just got it had it put on and now the rear drivers side is sitting higher then the rest and making it sit to one side i read that u got it level now well how thank you

I did the install myself and it was level when I finished it. Aesthetic rear springs and shocks the same on both sides? Did you have it installed somewhere? If so I would contact them and make sure all the parts are the same. Look at both sides were the springs are and see if you can tell if anything is different. :gun5::gun5:f:gun5:

If the 4th gen springs are similar to the 3rd (i can only assume they are) the springs should be marked "in some way" driver and passanger. with the driver side being taller to compensate for the driver and gas tank weight.

Thread revival!

I just picked up some Camburg 2.5" coilovers

In post #12 you said you don't need to run aftermarket UCA's. Has anything happened to your UCA? Still contemplating on installing these with the stock UCA or just selling them and getting a standard travel.

Anyone else have any input on running a 2.5" extended travel shock with stock UCA?
