The more you haul and the more miles you put on it, the lower the rear sits as the factory springs slowly give out, and the factory rear shocks have no way to adjust ride height. Shock Therapy's Viking Spring Kit fixes both: it replaces the worn factory springs with Shock Therapy springs, CNC-machined spring adapters and preload adjusters, so you get your payload capacity back and can set the ride height where you want it (for example 10 or 12 inches of ground clearance).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWHICH KIT DO I NEED\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel 1 Rear Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e rear springs, rear spring adapters, rear preload adjusters and two spanner wrenches for ride-height adjustments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel 2 Front \u0026amp; Rear Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e everything in Level 1 plus front springs, front spring adapters and front preload adjusters, so you can raise the front as well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWHICH SPRING RATE\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear standard spring:\u003c\/strong\u003e for stock weight up to 250 lbs of payload.
