[QUOTE="Jack Smith, post: 1024245, member: 72376"] Installed the Roadmaster Spring assist kit with a set of coilover shocks on my 02.. This combination taised my rear 1 1/2". It tows my hydrolic dump trailer with an overall rating of 5,000 loaded . I have an automatic transmission. So, when I come to any hill i go out of overdrive. Supposed to make the transmission last longer. My longest trip towing was 400 miles each way. Worked great. Got the Roadmaster kit off ebay for $125. Dont remember the brand of coilovers. However, both rear and front shocks came from Rock Auto. KYB Gas Adjust KG54309 are on the front. This combination makes for a nice stable ride. No rock n roll. I sold my high dollar diesel F250 and bought a clean, low miles 02. Then I bought the dump trailer, an enclosed trail that hauls my hunting gear. Also, a two place snowmobile trailer for my utv and gear. Now, if the Trac cant haul it, I simply hookup a trailer and go. Convenient and I had money left over. [/QUOTE]
