why go so low on a 4/6 drop when you could achieve the same and better with bags? sorry, i work with bags a lot and see no point of such a low slam w/out them. dont get me wrong, the lower the better...but just curious

SS02 I know what you mean man!!! Don't get me wrong man there are some bitchin' trucks that look awesome with bags. In fact a got some buddies with bags on their trucks and they look clean and are show trucks with no mods. Me personally am not a big fan on bags its not my taste. I think thats more for show. Im going with a street hot rod look and Im more for GO than SHOW!!! But my truck now is a turtle not a heir!!!!!

As long as you do it right there wont be any problems just make sure you go with a good c-notch manufacturer.

CLICK HERE For the 01-04 4/6 kit

I don't know If these spindles will work with a 17+ wheel though. (any one know?)

With this kit there is some adjustability in the front that allows you to go back to a 2" inch drop by using the stock coils if necessary.

its not that expensive to get bags and get em installed. if you know how to weld and wire things you can do it yourself. and bags these days if w/the correct setup handle a lot performance, but you dont have to worry about draggin over speed bumps. have fun and good luck w/your drop
