    Anyone running bulletproof lift with the lift puck mine are angled and can’t find the proper way to angle it bc every way I mount it my spindle hits the shock when I put it down on the ground

    So the truck off the ground in this pic but when it’s on the ground all bolted up the spindle is still sitting like this. And this all I got to show of the puck I’m at work atm.

    Is that with it on the ground under its full weight? Is the coilover even mounted at the top?

    What kit did you purchase? One with coilover spacers? If so what coilovers are you running and are they preloaded for lift. If that’s the angle of the uca with full weight on the ground you mucked up something. There is literally zero down travel of the suspension.

    Yea lift puck and 3” lift strut so at 15” which I’ve seen plenty of ppl get to that hight and couple of those ppl have lift pucks and not coil overs but I am getting oem shocks but rather put it at 15” bc I’m supposed to still have more than enough travel at that hight

    With the DB kit it doesn’t work the same. You can’t just stack lifts on top of each other. Pm coming your way.
