Found the top of a mountain in grizzly country. Camped on it.

I should be climbing about 4,000 feet tomorrow, towing my 1,500lb trailer. It will undoubtedly climb in temp in 2WD - I haven’t had it go into limp mode yet but it’s been very close to

Speak to me like I’m a five year old lol. I assume you aren’t referencing what’s circled in red.

They are seated properly - when installing them, there's a clear direction for the end of the spring/pigtail to face. I have debated taking the rubber strips off the stock springs and placing them on the new springs to see if that helps, but I would think the Alldogs install video would've...

I swapped out the stock rear springs with the Alldogs after also doing the front springs and being very impressed with those. Upon swapping out the rears, I now have a creaking sound coming from the rear suspension. This happens when I'm removing something as simple as a 20lb bag of pellets from...

Well, I guess your approach worked too ?

If I next ask where to put the blinker fluid, you'll know we're cooked.

You sir, may not be a mechanic, but you're more of a mechanic than me :clap: Thank you!

Checked the other side. Same thing ?

I am swapping out the stock rear springs with All Dogs. It’s a simple switch but I’ve run into an issue with the sway bar link. As you can see in the attached video, the nut seems to be rusted to the bolt and the whole bolt is turning when I try to remove the nut. I could try to loosen it with...

Rental spring compressors work. I used them. The first side took 2-3 hours to disassemble, swap out, and reassemble. The other side took 30 minutes. Have some beer on hand and a full afternoon - you'll be fine. Luckily the rears look a lot easier to swap out.

I thought the BakFlip and OEM trifold covers were the same exact product?

Just purchased the All Dog rear coil springs - already have the fronts installed. Will update once I get the rears put in. Getting them to restore rake and also eliminate current sag when towing.

Got these springs for the same reason. I’d recommend them for your scenario as well. I’m doing the rears shortly.

This. Look at Google reviews, stop by the shop to see their work. That said, I did all that and went with seemingly the best pick...and it's been not that great of an experience. Truck has been back in 3 or 4 times to get stuff fixed. It's still not perfect, but it's close enough. On the flip...

Also having this issue. Both when towing a 1200lb trailer or just traveling forest roads while not towing anything and nothing in the bed. I haven’t had it overheat and go into limp mode because I’ve stopped or just monitored it closely.

When not towing, do you have any additional weight (skid plates, etc.) added or is it stock? How's the ride? I have about 300lbs of weight added (skid plates and rock sliders), mostly toward the front. I am worried if I put new springs in the rear, it'll make the ride uncomfortable when not towing.

Front and rear? I have the Alldogs springs in the front...considering doing the same for the rear, or air bags - to prevent sag when towing my teardrop trailer. Any additional weight? Apologies if I asked you this in another thread.

Watched a YouTube video on this. So it appears to replace the lower bracket/mount of the air bag? Any downsides to running these with air bags?

Now considering air bags. However, I have seen comments that when the truck is raised on a jack, that can cause the air bags to tear/separate because they're mounted to both the frame and the axle. And when the axle is allowed to fully droop (either jacked up or off-roading), the air bags can't...
