Lowered Trucks: tech and info....
Thanks and your is pretty sick too.
She is just about to past 100k so she is going in for a dent and paint repair. Nothing full of eye candy or anything but going with a kind of two tone.. Hopefully get some more pics of her in a few weeks.

Since getting the 275/55/17s i have thought about cutting .5 or so off the front coil and then adding drop shackles in the rear to get it down to 5/7 or below 30" but that will prob wait until i take care of some of the rear panel damage that has happened over the year due to inconsiderate folks in parking lots.
D*mn someone always comes along and has to outdue me on how low your truck is. LOL. N, here I thought I would have the lowest static drop, without a C Notch, well maybe I am. LOL. I'm def gonna go lower, just not at the moment. I'm gonna do a 6/9 eventually. But, I am not doing a static drop that far, it'll b with bags. LOL.
Ok guys, I found a McGaughy's 2/4.5 for $345. That's a 2in coil, and flip kit with shackles. I want to go lower pretty soon after I do tires, so I want the cheaper kit with coils now. This is the cheapest I have found, so I think I'll just order it and be done. I think it was $380 shipped last I checked. Later on I'll do a 2in spindle and someone said that I use the stock shackles to get the 6in in rear?
It was Stylintrucks that had this kit for this price.

I'll get that kit ordered, and I'll be lowered shortly after Christmas, and the new year probably, somewhere around there lol. I'll get it lowered on the stock tires, and then remove the shackles for the stock ones and do the 2in spindles after I need new tires. I'm just tired on my year of having to jump up in a 2wd with huge 33in tires, its silly, IMO 2wd's shouldn't be this big.
Yes, if you use the stock shackle you'll get a 6inch drop in the rear. Just for god's sakes make sure you take the factory bump stops off! LOL. Otherwise you'll b riding on them. They're huge!
I've got it figured out, so I'm gonna do the drop springs in the front and the drop spindles as well. But, I think I might actually try the lowering "lower control arm", so that'll give me 6 in the front and I'll c-notch the rear and add lowering shackles to that, I'll then have a 6/8 drop. Maybe a 6/9 if I play my cards right. Plus I'm gonna add the rear sway bar upgrade from belltech. So, huge static drop, coming your way! LOL.
