The slams compress to 2.9" and the Firestones compress to 2.75". I set up everything to 3" so there is always room for error. The only slams that I have used were a bitch to work with, but they did offer more lift.
I can not see how so many of you think that the slams ride so much better. The only thing that I can figure is that none of you have enough valving in your shocks and need a stiffer part like the slams to compensate.
I know what you guys are talking about with the cracked rubber around the mounts on the Firestone tho, I've had a few do the same to me, but I still ran mine for 5 more years with zero issues untill I sold the car to a friend that didn't have any probs either.
I have been installing Firestones ONLY for 10 years now and I can't remember a time when a Firestone part has ever failed me. I might have installed some wrong and had issues from it, but nothing from the factory. The guy that I get some of my parts from has been bagging vehicles sence 1982 and he still runs only Firestones. And if I need some technical help with springrates or some other off-the-wall question, the tech guys will always be there.
But as for Slams... We'll see how Low Life Mike's truck does...
