How much weight do you have in the rear of your vehicle? I would also be interested to see what the rear springs look like on a Bronco with no additional weight and set to King factory settings? Wonder what the top spring looks like.

I may eventually go with a heaver top spring but I am not in the mood to tear everything out again. Maybe later next year when I am feeling bored!

I actually just finished changing out the 350 for the 450 like 1 hour ago. It is sitting level right now with the preload set at just about 1 inch. I didn't get any pics of the shocks with it sitting on the ground but it is now sitting almost dead level with everything I typically carry in the...

I just saw an earlier post you made where you responded to this question. I would highly recommend redesigning the rear portion of this rack to allow the rear top open up. I think there are a lot of soft top owners who are looking for a good roof rack solution but I would bet that at least 90%...

What about the back? Can you open the back all the way up? I have a package tray in the back that I need to access. I was seriously looking at purchasing your roof rack but there was no clear indication as such on your website. There was also no static and dynamic loading information on your...

Awesome freakin photo! Just how I like to see them, deep in goop and gettin muddy!

The fronts are set as King sets them from the factory. I will eventually be swapping out to 37's so I will need the space. I have heavier rear springs sitting in my garage and will hopefully be installing those this week.

Looks great. Can you provide some insight as to why you decided on the Gobi rack in lieu of just a roof rack considering you have a hardtop? I have a soft top and have been looking at a couple options to add a roof rack so that I can eventually add a RTT.

Foundation Series 4 or 6 Sided Portable Pop Up Hub Tent – Freespirit Recreation (gofsr.com) I just saw this tent by FSR which is very similar to the Gazelle.

Gazelle is awesome.

Like some others on this site, I bought the limited Badlands version and would like to pass this awesome piece of engineering on to someone else. I already have it boxed up and ready to ship. $150 shipped.

Trust me, I was surprised as well. I knew it would sag some but not as bad as it did. With the factory Sasquatch Bilstein shocks, I did not have any real sag in the rear. But with the King coilovers, it sagged way more than I thought. I ordered and will be swapping out the main 350lb springs...

So, I decided to talk with Down South Motorsports who I bought the Kings from. They are really knowledgeable with offroad suspensions. They explained to me that the top spring really is a tender spring. And changing out that spring will really not help. They recommended going with a larger...

All, Below is the email I received from King Shocks. I guess the takeaway is if you are going to load up the back of your Bronco, be aware of how you set up your rear suspension. I plan on taking the shocks to my shop and have them move the coil stop nuts as recommended. Engineering team...

So, got a response back from American Adventure Labs. Total for the AAL stuff is 220lbs and the fridge is 38lbs. That is everything empty. So, Silver-Bolt, you win. You were right on target with your weight assumptions. I was way off. Anyway, about 260lbs sitting back there daily will...

So, I removed the fridge and both drawers and the rear did raise up about 1". I would say that the drawers and fridge combined for about 100lbs. I still have the shelf and fridge slide along with the base plate system installed. I am reaching out to American Adventure Labs to get a more...

Well, King did respond back and they indicated they had not seen this issue for the Bronco yet. I assume they will get back to me on which springs to buy and replace. I think the total weight of my "stuff" in the rear is about 100 lbs. I would just think the factory setting would have easily...

I have it cranked down where the top spring is fully compressed. I will definitely need a heavier spring. Waiting on a recommendation from King.

Well, I didn't think all the stuff in the rear would have caused it to drop that much considering I didn't really see any dip in the rear with the sasquatch suspension installed. I did send King an email asking them about it but I think you both may be correct that I will need to install...

After installing my King's, my Bronco is sitting where the rear is lower than the front. This is with them at factory setting. The fronts are basically with no threads showing and the rear had maybe 1" of threads showing. I cranked the rears 10 turns which compressed the top spring all the...
