EB Coils - think I found the unicorn

[rickcdewitt]

yeah i was a little confused since in post 81 you say you raised the upper perch 2.5" and then in post 13 of your frame shortening thread you say you raised the floor of the lower bucket 2.5" also to compensate.

When I first put the springs in I just had the coil sitting directly on the arm (no lower coil bucket) so it was actually lower than stock since there was no lower ranger style coil mount. The coil buckets were ~2.5" higher than that so in the end it was probably only about an inch higher than stock.

If I was at home I would take some pics of the buckets I made since it is easier to see and understand than for me to explain it verbally.

diggin up this thread. i have 5.5" drop brackets from superlift (i'll gusset them later). the stock coils that came with the lift (superlifts 5.5" coil) gave me the height i kinda wanted but then again, i need a LOT more flex to be happy with it. the EB coils you used rangerhood netted 5.5" lift correct? they give a lot of flex?

i have an explorer 4 door with the 4.0L of course so keep that in mind.
