Auto Spring 2.5” (Before & After)

[Nomad]

Question’s for those who have the auto spring 2.5” level:

1) How long have you had it installed?
2) After the install were they able to zero out your alignment?
3) Did they only have to adjust the toe as stated on the website or the camber also?
4) How’s the ride quality compared to stock?
5) Anything negative; tire wear, auto headlights, bumper sensors, etc?

For anyone that can help me with this long list of questions, I VERY MUCH APPRECIATE IT.
Thanks!

1) How long have you had it installed……about 5 weeks

2) After the install were they able to zero out your alignment…… not sure about zeroing out term but I have no issues whatsoever with alignment.

3) Did they only have to adjust the toe as stated on the website or the camber also….. they shop that did my install didn’t mention anything to me other than everything went smooth and it alignments sheet with green checks.

4) How’s the ride quality compared to stock….. just as comfortable, no difference that I could tell, I’m very happy with it.

5) Anything negative; tire wear, auto headlights, bumper sensors, etc…… nothing negative whatsoever, all positive.

I recommend it!

Badmothertrucker, thank you for ur through reply!

I’m hoping that everyone who has the kit had similar results… I set an appointment with a very reputable lift & alignment shop for the 21st. The guys there admitted that they have never installed an auto spring kit. They said they have never done a level that didn’t require a camber adjustment.

They told me that have done several 21’s & 22’s but have yet to get a Tremor in their shop. They are looking forward to working on the truck & installing the new kit, but were preparing me for the worst possible outcome. I’m not going to lie, now I have doubts & don’t want mess my truck truck up. I know everything can be reversed, but just want to get it right the first time.

They won’t have any issues installing this, probably tell you it was an easier install as the site claims, have faith it’ll be all good

Got the 2.5 AS installed yesterday & promptly went out & ran a 20 mile off-road trail. I have to say I think the ride is better both on & off road with the rear end being stiffened up a little & not checking out at speed now.
The suspension company that installed & aligned my truck was surprised & very impressed with the AS kit & found no issues with full droop or the alignment after.
Looking forward to putting some miles in & putting out a long term review, but I am VERY IMPRESSED with the initial look & ride.
With the stock tires & wheels, I’m now sitting (ground to finder well) at 40.5” front & 41.5“ rear with about a 150lbs kit in bed & bak flip tonneau cover. Before pic the bed is empty & no cover yet.

Looks fking great man. Can't wait to get mine installed.

I didn't expect it to improve ride much since it's just a spacer, but I'm even more excited now after reading your comments.

1) How long have you had it installed?

about 5 days​

2) After the install were they able to zero out your alignment?

See here. I would suggest buying a camber kit and take it with you to your alignment.​

3) Did they only have to adjust the toe as stated on the website or the camber also?

I used the method to install on stage 3, AS 2.3 spacer page. This messed up all my numbers see link above.​

4) How’s the ride quality compared to stock?

Passed WAF (wife acceptance factor). Truth be told it rides the same to my seat of the pants. i am sure something changed, but i am happy with it. Long story short, same smooth ride.​

5) Anything negative; tire wear, auto headlights, bumper sensors, etc?

Nothing so far... i am going to have to tilt my fog lights back down, I raised them but that's something I did vs something the spacer kit did.​

Picture is my avitar. if you want more detailed pictures let me know. I am sitting Level within an 1/8th of an inch front to back.
