Default UhOh! Lowering a 4x4 qc.

Well its official. I am wanting to drop my rear a couple inches. I know i can get some belltech 6400s. And i want to bring the front down an inch with the torsions. Im just curious what u guys think. Trying to find out what size tires i can run with the slight drop. Any help is welcomed.

drop the rear using different leaf shackles. Front will easily drop with the torsion bars. I would say limit the tires to a 265/60 or a 245/75 or something in between.

Cool. I wasnt really sure about the tires. Really like the street look but often use my 4wd for boat ramps. Kinda out grew the whole hittin every mud hole i see thing. Lol but the option of the 4wd is awesome.
