RK 2.5 coil spring install
Well I started this morning about 9:30 and finished after lunch. All seem to go well. Thanks for everyones advice. My on worry is whether there should be anything to secure the coil, especially rears. When I pulled the front coils out, the spacer came out with it. I just installed the new rk 2.5 with the rubber isolator. When I pulled the rear, the puck was bolted in and I had to undo it. Again, I installed the 2.5 rk coil with the rubber isolator. It seem to have more chance for side to side movement at full droop than the fronts. The fronts had more of a collar than rears. Does seem ok or is there suppose to be something to keep the coils secure?
No you should be fine. You can buy coil spring retainer clips to prevent them from popping out at full flex but it depends on what kind of wheeling you do. I wheel w/ a lot of guys w/ this lift and never had them fall out.

nope nothing special. i just installed my 2.5 RK flex kit a month ago. just fit the coil into the same groove that the stock one was it. it's very noticeable once you're under there. i had to raise and lower mine a couple times during the lift and i thought the coil might pop out of the groove but it never did. nothing to worry about.
