    After installing the bumper and winch I lost a little over 3/4” of height. Since the 6112’s are literally brand new I’m looking at adding a heavier spring. What are your suggestions. I see a lot of folks running 650/700# kings / Eibachs.

    here’s the run down on mods

    southern style sliders about (40# each)
    Warn bumper (80#)
    Apex winch ( 60#)
    Trd skid (25#)
    Front runner ext length rack (85+#)
    Dual battery (50+#)

    so right now I’m about 380# over stock give or take.

    Im heavily leaning towards the king 700’s. But any input is greatly appreciated.

    I have similar to you but RCI full steel skids. Unless you have a full plate bumper King 650 springs is good enough which is what I have. It settled to 1/2" when I added the Victory 4x4 front lo pro steel bumper and 12k winch. I adjusted the collar to maintain my 2.5" of lift, not too much of a preload.

    Ok that’s what I’m hoping for. Thank you.
