Yeah I don’t do the FB STUFF. damn that looks good. Might have to look into those. What exact springs do you have. And does it affect the magnetic ride? Did you have to get alignment after they were installed?

I'm running BMR 1" drop springs if I remember correctly. ill find the receipt and let you know for sure. if you call BMR and ask to speak with TC, he is literally the all knowing of 5th gen suspension. it doesn't affect mag ride at all, I'm even running their sway bars, trailing arms, toe rods etc. etc. although if you want adjustable LCA's go with this different shop he told me to go with because they have the adapter for the mag ride sensors. ill pull up all the info in a little bit and get the name of the shop.
any time you do suspension work its recommended to get an alignment just to make sure it right and you don't get any unnecessary tire wear. I did all of mine myself and got it aligned the next day
