I installed the springs this morning. It wasn't hard at all. I supported the truck at the back of the frame with jack stands. Raised the wheel with my jack, pulled the tire off, and removed the lower shock bolt. Then I dropped the axle down all the way and pulled the spring out. The driver's side took some prying to get it off but the passenger side came off pretty easy.
I forgot to take a before measurement on the driver's side but the passenger side sits 1/2" higher now as compared to the stock height. Comparing side to side now the passenger side is 1/2" higher than the driver side but that could be because I have a full tank of gas. On the stock springs, one was higher because of the gas tank. On these, they are the same height.
Now for the ride, it's a little firmer in a good way. Not harsh or rough at all. Not a huge difference until you take a corner. There is nowhere near the body roll. The truck handles beautifully and it feels planted.
So far I love them. However, the real test is going to be in a couple of weeks when we take the trailer out camping. I'll post an update then.
