Lowered My 06 This Weekend
I took a chance and lowered my Dak. Some have said don't cut your coil springs. I did, and am not saying you should, but this is what I did. I would give detailed step by step but messing with coil springs under pressure is very dangerous, I do this and have safe tools for it. To do the rear I went to a spring shop and had some of the arch of the leaf springs taken out. I had already put the lowering shackels on. I can't tell any change in the ride. I have also put 20" tires and wheels on. With the tire and wheel combination I chose the tires don't stick out. The tires are 245-50-20 Pirelli Scorpions. I got these from a local guy that gets them from a test center. They go on a 2007 Dodge Nitro. He said they are not out yet by Pirelli. I have the 3.7 so it is a little lighter in the front than the V8. From top of the tire to fender is 3 3/4" front and back. If you choose to do this please get someone who does this kind of work and has the right tools to do it safely.
