lowering a 4x4? Man... I know the lady wants it lowered, but I think shes messin with you. LOL.

Dont lower a 4x4 man, please dont.

 

Exactly what ran through my mind.

 

Give me a week until I get the roll pan installed. The painted bumper doesn't look good. And besides it sits low enough you can't really see the Caltracs. As for 4wd being lowered, check this sweet ride. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2299721

 

The only thing that went through my mind is she WANTS something and it's probably big. If she's giving you suggestions about something she calls a "money pit" essentially telling you to do a mod, I would ask her what it is she wants. 2 kids and an ex tells me all signs point to a larger purpose. Just my thoughts on the matter.

 

Ya thats what i was thinking she has a grande scheme and it scares me.So ive made up my mind im gonna lvl the front get some nice 18"rims put some nitto terra graplers and some black bushwacker pocket flairs .and lets see how she responds to that lol and thx for the advice gus.maybe down the road my next new truck will be a rt modle reg cab then ill have the best of both worlds

 

Thats why iv chose a 18"rim so i can put some 35" meats

 

Im so indesicive its not even funny. Now i think of more street which im more into.like putting drop shackles in the back so i can keep my facotry payload for my quad and others and get my rims painted black go debadged which im doing next set of days off and fially order my black 1pc wire mesh grill and paint my head lights
and get led rears

 

Drop shackles will bring it down some and removing the O/L won't hurt anything. But please don't paint those beautiful wheels.. Sell'm, trade'm, give'm away, but don't paint them... my 2 cents.

 

The main thing is i want it lvl up or down i just want it to functional for its 4x4 so sin e its a reg cab im not sure if lvling the front will effect ride quality ?. Other thing if u use drop shackles and remove the o.l leaf if it will ride too low? Gd im confused

 

When I made my comment earlier to lower, I didn't see the 4x4 in your signature and just was assuming single cab=2wd, so ya it makes the decision tough, IMO raising the front on 4wd is the best. The way your trucks sitting you could get away with a 2" drop and if you don't like it you haven't forked out $200.00. I don't beleive big bushwacker flares would do your truck justice but if your new rims stick out a bit then some Painted flares might look Ok. If you end up selling your factory rims let me know, I live near the Hat. Good Luck.
