Ok, I thought with all the front end upgrade posts that maybe its time to have a suspension discussion.

Here is my question - has anyone gone with a coil-over suspension setup for the front end yet? I know these setups are pricey as hell and I'm not even sure if they make them for the Deuce, but I have been pretty disappointed with my front end for a while now.

My problem - I went with the skyjacker lift, I think it gives me 5-1/2" lift. Rolling 40's, cranked the stock keys all the way up and added 1-1/2" spacers on the back under the coils to even out the stance. Looks ok, except for when I turn into a dip, the tire digs into the frame big time and makes a huge pop from it hitting the frame on the back of the wheel well. Also, when I hit a dip in the road, the truck bounces up and down and there is a huge pop from my wheel shooting down after absorbing the bump when going slow over a dip - pretty sure it is from the keys being cranked and the wheel is shooting back down under the pressure.

Now, I know I need a new steering setup simply because of the 40's eventually. I was thinking of getting the green keys that everyone talks about, but I'm not sure if they are going to give me enough of a change to notice. Rocking Bilstein shocks too, so good to go there. I guess the point I am trying to make is that I would like my truck to just be able to hit a bump and absorb it nicely without popping, rubbing, or bouncing. About ready to take it to a body shop and have them cut out part of my wheel wells just to open it up, but I know that this isn't going to get me to where I can hit something and have the suspension suck it up like a desert buggy. Whatever I decide to do next will be drastic, so I want to see if thereis anything I am missing before I go chop shop on my truck.

Pretty sure there are others out there too that are maxing out the 5-1/2" to 6" lifts with 40's and are wondering the same thing, so let's talk about it.
