Hey guys with lowered 4wd's what are you guys doing to get them puppies lowered? I showed my older cousin some pics of a few of you guys trucks and I think he wants to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Pull the rear block out, that will level it. Then u can put a rear shackle or spring pack and get another 2-3 each or 4 or 5 with both. Then ur into a C-notch. You can de-crank ur bars in the front, or get new keys to get 1-3 drop for the front. You can also get drop spindles. Depends how low u wanna go.

 

I did Belltech lowering keys for the front, removed the rear lift blocks, and installed Belltech 2" drop shackles. If I had the bucks I would have done spindles up front instead of keys, but the keys are fairly cheap and the truck rides decent. Handling/cornering has greatly improved. The front bumpstops will need to be trimmed...I replaced mine with rubber ones as the originals were of a harder composition (plus, I accidentally cut them too short the first time lol). I believe that the rear bumpstops may require trimming also, but mine were missing so I just replaced them with some short Belltech ones. There's some pics in my cardomain link in my siggy.

 

I appreciate the quik reply guys! Im gonna show him the pics of your truck bud I think thats the stance he is lookin for.

Thanks again!

 

I really like the way bud's truck sits

 

That thing really looks good! I love it

 

I did Belltech 2" drop spindles, de-twisted the torsions an inch or so and shacles/hangars in the rear. Like BudHayes said, the handling is gobs better

 

you can always start with a level drop and see how he likes that before getting the kit... just a thought. About a month ago we had a mod day here at the house and we level dropped L33Z71's Lil' Mule. He also removed the Z71 stickers too.


I like my level drop a lot, better handling.

 

Thanks for the compliments guys

 

Mine's not as low as most on here, just removed the blocks and decranked an inch or so.
