Towed today with new 988-AAs

[CUMMINZ]

Pulled my Day Dreamer to Charlotte and back today for the first time since dealer installed my 988-AAs (snow plow front springs). Believe it or not I can tell a large difference in the ride and handling with these heavier springs. :-laf

Did you get any extra lift / raise in height out of these over you previous front springs?

 

[CUMMINZ]

I did not measure it but it looks like and easy 1 1/4" to 1 1/2". I would say my truck sits level when I place the rv to it. I just disconnected it and the rear raises 2"s with no load.

OK! You are the 2nd person to say it actually raised the front of your truck. I like to get multiple opinions/facts before I jump "on board" so to speak.



Thank You! Jess

Cumminz, Thanks for the pics! I am going to take a shot here, the bottom pic with the chrome fender trim and exhaust tip must be the "after", honestly I cannot see any difference in height, if anything the top picture looks like the front may be higher, but I'm half blind in one eye and can't see out of the other.



Besides all that, Nice Truck! Again thanks for the photos.



Oh, put that for sale sign in the bottom picture on the ford in the back ground!!!

I put a tape measure on the top of my front tire and measured 10. 5" to the bottom of the lip of the fender. This may help.

Both new & old springs are 18"s tall. Old springs are 3/4" steel. New springs are 15/16 or 1" the best I can measure.
