Make sure you get good shocks and it will ride "fine". It's still a slammed truck, but I think it rode better than most stock trucks because I personally am a sports car guy and I hate the floating that most trucks have. I want responsive suspension that handles the road

That sure is purdy, me likey.
Do you plan on doing anything else to your set up to make it handle better?

I sold that truck back in 2011, new truck will be on coilovers in front and double adjustable rear shocks. Won't be as low, probably a 3/6 drop where the black one was 5.5/8
