couldn't find the answer to this question. Seems 360/80 valving on the front has been suggested as a baseline. question I have is for when you run dual front shocks. Should I combine both shock valving rates to get my total valving affect or am I way off base.

ex: would a 255/70 and a 170/60 be equal to a 425/130?

I would call or email Bilstein directly. Most of us are just running singles these days.

360/80 on the front for me with the 255/70 on the rear, I originally had the 255/70 on the front and it was definitely not enough to control the springs. I have 3.5" deavers in front and the deaver copy that bronco graveyard was selling in the rear.
