What coil springs would you recommend as far as drop? Front/rear? I’m stuck between keeping rally’s vs buying new wheels and tires...
Side note, I see you have a 700r4, I do as well. How difficult was it for you to set the line pressure for correct shift points? I’m shifting into second about 10-12mph. I can’t adjust much more, I have no slack in line at idle and it’s tight at full throttle. Thanks for your input!

On the 700R4 I bought the Bowtie Overdrives TVmadeEZ throttle cable kit and their Torque Converter lock-up kit. Not cheap but worth it. The lock up kit has a brake safety switch that unlocks the TC when you apply the brakes. I set it up with a pressure gauge with the stock pressures I found online. My 700R has been in the truck since 2006 and has maybe +/-70K miles on it now. I do burn outs all the time, I should have killed it by now, but it still shifts great. I can't help it, the exhaust sounds too good and the backend is just too light.
Anything over 15" wheels and you can use the 2.5" spindle.
This is the problem I ran into and you can see I had to trim my A-Arm a bit. I wasn't happy about it. As far as springs, I installed whatever was in the ECE kit.
