Hey guys so im still looking at my gears thinking maybe going with 4.10s just for highway mileage from Houston to Dallas and to OKC. Im also looking at going lower with the drop either a 4/6 or 5/7 so ya i wanted to see if anyone has a 4/6 or 5/7 that can post up some pics.

i have a 4/6 from Mcgauphys i havent ever seen a 5/7 kit but you can do it with the 4/6 and a few small mods. check out my album i have some pics in there. truck has 4/6 drop on 22's

Spindles to keep close to stock geometry. Springs could be a PIA to align.

Looks pretty clean man. ya im planning on getting 2" drop spindles, stock shackles, and shock extenders. a few of my friends are running a 5/7 and a couple are running a 6/8, it kinda sucks because after i actually got my 2/5 on it kinda makes my truck still look stock which is not what i want.
