Yes. Im interested in knowing all the front suspension parts on the red truck. What are the lower control arms you used? What coilivers and ratings dud yiu use. Any infirmation will help. I want that same drop up front

well, the parts I've bought might not work for my drop, so I will have to update whenever I am able to see if they work. The shocks I bought use a 9" spring, but that spring selection is extremely limited. I bought a 10" spring but I'm not sure if it will be able to get low enough

I was able to test fit the springs and it seems to work fine. The springs are at the lowest setting possible, which is too low. I measure 14.25" hub to fender and it's actually tucking tire. So I will raise it up slightly, but it's good to know they fit.

VAS lower control arms
Belltech 2" spindles
Stock UCAs that have the balljoints flipped and Belltech offset bushings installed
Viking c205 shocks with 10" 850lb/in coilover springs

How was you to get that much drop on those wheels?

Do you have problems with speed bumps or rubbing?
