You mean again because you’ve seen it at least twice now

Non symmetry kinda always bothers me

Got your make&model of bed cover.
Loved how it looked on yours.
Love how it looks on mine.
You know they say imitation is a form of flattery...

Good choice, this is my second one and have zero complaints
My Son got one as well
We are a fan

Finally got my alignment dialed
Toe in the rear was WAY off
It now drives much better, prob won’t be scary in the rain anymore
The place that started my alignment I guess never got past the camber not being adjustable…. I assumed incorrectly that they at least looked at it
Only cost me two tires….
Kinda annoyed about it but I guess it’s on me for not checking sooner

So I’ve got a love/hate situation going on right now
The H&R Super Sports ride awesome…. Hopefully they will settle some as the wheel gap is terrible

We installed the “normal” springs into the Scale coilovers as well, quite a height difference

I can see why people are having no complaints about the normal version
Will wait a couple of weeks before I got back to the Scales (with normal springs)
Just going to enjoy a decent ride for a while
And for reference my blue truck that was stock height with the 20’s

Just wondering if you would want to sell those H&R super sports, with the whole front strut? I might just go lowering springs. I just want to swap out my stock strut. Just wondering?

Keeping them just in case

Starting working on one of the many “up in the air” projects
Thanks to @Vtec87pr1 for starting on this ahead of me
Still need to connect the Bronco Sport bumper harness to see if the foglight circuit is getting power
Once I figure that out I’ll work on mounting the Diode Dynamics SS3’s I saved from my F150

note the fog lights appear to be on in the cluster

Very cool. Fog lights would be nice. I'm not that daring to add them tho. Question for you about the scale coilovers? The regular ones say the do a 3" drop? That is what the h&r springs go , right? I planned on buying the regular ones, but if it's the same drop as the springs, it's kinda not worth it to me.

Scale low version is 3.5 in the front 5 in the rear
H&R Super sports are 2.2 / 3
Plenty low enough for most, makes the truck sit level and the ride is really good
I can’t recommend the Scales at all
The ride is not good, granted going that low (in relation to the inside of the wheel wells) I’m not sure it’s possible to have a great ride
There is maybe an inch and a half of available travel in the front
No way around it with that little travel

People have said the normal ones ride down but I have the normal springs on my low versions and it was just a marginal improvement
