I just removed the Downey HD coils from my 2nd gen to install Cruiser coils. If the coils on your 3rd gen seat the same way as mine, and you don't have the end of the coil properly inserted into the pocket on the axle, one side of your truck should be a slight bit higher than the other until the spring is properly seated. Fix that and flip over your track bar and you should be in good shape.

Yes i am a dumbass. The bar is fixed. A quick drive through some ditches and it looks much better. Yes, I am a dumbass. Oh well. All fixed now.
SS3- the e-brake bracket id from you. It is bent b/c when I bolted it down all the way=bent. I guess i will take it off and add a washer or two so the bracket doesn't bend.
As for Chris' (CMD93) issue w/ the coil. If the coil is not seated properly thus causing one side to be higher than the other. With that said, that is the reason one side sticks out farther thatn the other.
Thanks for helping out an idiot that can't read instruction--no wait look at a picture
