I decided that the drop didnt work for me So i took the rear clamps off yesterday to bring it back up and just left the front ones on to control the bouncyness.

The coopers just dont fit my taste with lowered trucks. the only reason i would drop my truck would b if i got some tires like the nitto420s, but i dont see that happening as i will probably buy these Black 22" kmc slides with nitto terra graps on em if i ever got enough money...

Yeah i have fallen in love with those rims i mean damn!

The grapps dont look any more agressive than my coopers. Heck i could save a lot of money by just Buying the rims/tires seperate and get some Kumho Ecsta's for them and total it out to $1872.46 Its all about finding the best deal.

RedTruck....I noticed in your pictures that you did not reinstall the OL leaf in your leaf pack. Would you recommend I take it out during the install or leave it in there. Does the rear sit lower than the front without it? I am using springs up front instead of spindles, so I guess I just want to make sure I am not sitting lower in the rear!! Thanks!!

I like it without the O/L spring. I pull a 6x12 enclosed motorcycle trailer and the O/L spring never came into use. So I left mine out.
