Front and rear shocks were changed, the springs were the same ones I had all along, I just took them out to get powder coated along with my brake Calipers, because why not? I already had it jacked up and all apart to change the shocks.

I think this is a case of "I didn't notice it sagging in the rear before I took the springs out and had them powder coated?" moment......You need new rear springs. Go with a set of Heavy OME, or ARB.

I think the question was, are you sure you didn't put the front springs in the back by accident?

Ohhh, I didn't know that was even possible?

oh it’s possible. I got the tf heavy duty springs and shocks for 2 inch lift and also the shock towers. Ride is solid I think the tf shock towers makes a big difference

That could be the missing piece of the puzzle. I also added TF shock towers. So the front is higher pushing the back down I suppose. I’ll stick to my plan of adding spacers to the new dislocation cones I ordered which are also by TF. Just to be absolutely certain, the front springs should be taller than the tears right?

I typically go by thickness; the thicker spring will be in back.
