Finally got around to taking some pics.
I dropped it on Srt springs and widened with 295's on spider monkeys.

Overall handling is worlds better!

Great look! Do you have the spring part numbers you used? I've been looking for SRT8 springs everywhere, since never saw someone do this install in this forum, thought they wouldn't fit on standard wk2s.

Did you install 295 tires on 20x9 rims?
Yep those are 295's on the 20x9's. Thx to evolv0 here on the forum who provided all the input on this as well as the hancooks. Love these tires.

I don't have the parts numbers on the springs unfortunately as I bought them used from CLStech (another forum member) But they were SRT 2014 springs.

Update:
After the install the alignment was a mess. After two trips to the shop that did it I decided to go to a specialist. He fixed it.

Drives straight as an arrow now. Anyone in Seattle area I highly recommend Truline...

The only bummer though was that he discovered grease all over one wheel. Looks like I am a victim of the CV joint issue... Back to the dealer!

I had a shop do the work overall cost was approx. 1700

Non load leveling was 250 or so including the new upper mounts that were needed.


Since the install I've had a few issues. First my right cv joint went out, I assume this was a manufacturing issue as there was a bulletin issued on this. My front sway bar is rattling now. I believe this is a result of the shop who did the original install. The idiot neglected to tighten the sway bar enough and the nut came loose, it was re tightened a day later but I think the links have worn out as a result. Either way dealership is covering it...

Aside from that the truck handles worlds better. I am glad that I made the change...
