Sweet truck! I have a similar setup on mine. What's the specs on the drop and wheels/tires?

I'll probably pick up some Nitto or Toyo tires in 285/40 22.
In a previous post.

Tread pattern in pictures tells me nitto 420s tires.

Any issues dropping the front 4in with the 4wd?
Thought max was 2in and some have pushed to 3in.

How's the ride?

No issues, I assume they are VERY cautious on how far they say you can go. Honestly, I plan on going another inch as soon as I can get my hands on a rear notch.

I suppose it may settle a bit yet too since the truck only has 1500 miles on it?

There are people out there (person?) who is even lower. I've had cars with much worse angles on the driveline than in currently sitting. I'm not scared yet...

3-4in for the front is fine.

Once you start pushing serious horsepower, that's when the front CV shaft anlge will be a issue with 4x4 launches.

Only need to worry about snow here.. Don't anticipate any 4wd launches.

I am resisting the urge to order a whipple though.

Damn sweet truck. Curious where you ordered those wheels and what the $$ looked like.

Pretty sure I picked them up on amazon. Somewhere around 900 if I remember right?
