I think they look better lifted. Sorry can not help.

 

I've been thinking of doing the same thing. Check out Belltech. They make a lowering kit for our daks.

ya ive looked up many difderent kits. ive also done some research on it as well, and ive heard tht you need to notch out the frame im looking to see what is all involved in the process.

You're talking about a C notch. That's for people who slam their trucks. Are thinking of slamming your truck? If that's the case you'd probably want to go to a different forum like customdakotas. this forum is great but i dont see very many people lower their dak here.

well i dont think i want it slammed to the ground but i would like to have it lowered a little bit. something like 3" in back and 2" in the front

If your looking for a fairly cheap option, you could do lowering blocks in the back, and could go the correct route and buy 2" drop spindles for the front, or you could cut the coil springs and try to get that 2" drop.

 

You can get shorter coil springs and softer leaf springs. if ride quality is an issue then buy a lowering kit, it comes with everything you need including shocks.

so ive decided that this is something that i want to do. i would like to know from someone that has done this is it really a pain in the *** or is this something that can be done in the garage.

So I have decides that I am going to do a 3/2 drop. By putting 3'' clocks in the back and getting 2'' drop springs in the front. I just need to know if I need to put in new shocks or will the factory ones still work? Any info???
