Got on the ground force website last night....found they have just a rear lowering kit (they claim it's specific to a regular cab). Anyone lower just the rear?
I'm just looking to level the truck out....prefer to do it in the rear than the front (that's what she said).

I talked to a dodge tech and he said in most cases each body style has a different spring, (or spring rate) so the coil may physically fit but it wont handle the weight. so a reg cab short bed will have a lighter spring rate than a quad or a crew cab.

hopefully that is the case, but I want to see some pictures from some members rather than just what the company shows us. From my past experience with lowered cars that I have had, when you put larger wheels/tires on, it usually makes the gap look larger (may not actually be larger but it makes your eye notice a lot more). The key is to get the gap perfect for your wheel/tire combo and what kind of look you want for your vehicle. IMO, all vehicles looks best when the gap is the absolute smallest itr can be and still allow all wheel functions (turning, bumps, etc.)
Larger wheels make gaps look smaller.
Those pics are from a magazine build not from the manufacturer...

They actually got back to me via email and stated this. Said that I'd likely have a different "drop" than what's stated. Didn't think the different cab styles would really matter but evidently it does. He said they're developing a kit now and they will update their website when available.
