I had my pinion factor reset to 634 for my 285s. I did not notice any difference in driveability but I like not having to do the math to figure my corrected speed.

I run the edge on 5/5 all the time since i got the tranny upgrade. Its works extremely well. No worries.

surfram, do you have a leveling kit also or is it just the way the truck is sitting?

No leveling kit, but my truck does have the factory "snow plow prep" option. I guess the front coils on snow plow prep trucks must be heavier duty because my truck has less of a rake than most 3rd gen CTDs I see on the road.
