Why not save money when you can. If you wait and buy them later it will just cost you more, so pm flyer and get on the list. That goes for you other guys as well. The more people buy the better the discount.

So if I read this right, since my truck is dropped with shackles and hangers(Belltech or DJM) then I have to pay 50 bucks more?

Has anyone ever installed these on a 4/6 truck? It looks like there wouldn't be much ground clearance w/ these installed.

I think they make a low profile option.

If you want them to grind on them for you. If you get the grinder yourself, do a little clearancing on them, then that's all they do as far as I know.

I had to do that to my shackles when I was moving them around too, it took all of about 5 minutes t do both of them.

I went out and looked at mine. They are about an inch and a half from the overload on the stock spring. I think up tp the point of the tire, they are about as low as the trans crossmember.

I'll call and get the word on the lowprofile set anyways.

OK ... here's the deal

The low profile bar set doesn't have the 2 different eyelets in the front. The front only hangs down 3 1/4 inch as oppose to 5 1/2. I think you would be OK with the regular ones though, but you might want the low pro's anyways.

I also got some good info from the guy on using them too. VERY helpful!
