Tried different coil isolator and different coil correction pads and different coil springs, they all bow.

instead of coil overs, which coil works best for you?

I have accutune/eibach coils on mine, stock pads, and they sit perfectly straight.

With them both bowing towards the front like that it almost looks like your control arms might not be set quite right.

Read up on Synergy springs. I don’t have them yet, but if you read the full description on their website, it appears they have them figured out.

had to balance the caster and pinion angle, without FAD I forced to lower the pinion angle so it doesn't vibrate all tthe time.

put them on, only took me 30 minutes to swap them on my garage floor..im getting good on this.
still bows forward a little bit, used a line laser to check the axle is center, I guess the only way to fix the bow is to dial up the caster(shorten the upper control arm, rotate the axle backward), which will ruin my pinion angle. I had aftermarket drive shaft and those u joints really don't like any angle...

so, I guess I will live with occasional rubbing noise.

What is your caster number now?

went down and double checked it. Since the synergy spring is abit shorter than rockrawler one, I’m getting less lift height.
now I’m at 0.6 degrees caster……. Wondering how the magic it still drives fine. Definitely need more caster when I got time tomorrow……
