So now I'm curious, what did your truck scale at? Because I'm running a 10" at 800#'s (I know I weigh more in an extended cab but from what I've seen most reg cab guys use 800#er's too)

It looks like you are on the strip the most, but how's the ride?

 

Same, DBRods said 800 for rc and ec, and 850 for cc.

How much travel do you have? It seems like mine only has a couple inches. Still haven't gotten to drive it.

 

Mine are 8", I'm wondering why he said to go 8" when you guys seem to be running 10"

 

Keep in mind I'm running an aluminum block so that's a little lighter than your usual LS. Yes my truck is setup for the strip but it rides very smooth on the road.
I will have to ask my suspension guy about the travel it has but if I remember correctly, he said it was a very nice kit and had plenty of travel.

 

Your truck also looks way lower than I ever plan to go with 4wd.
I almost considered going to a 3.1" travel shock and 8" coil but since I've got distance between mounts I figured more travel wouldn't hurt. Seems longer coil can get away with lower spring rate too.



Yeah alu. block is like 80lb lighter.
...then I've got a front diff and CV axles thrown up there too..

 

Looks sharp man! Would really like to see more pics of the suspension setup also.

 

As soon as I pick up my truck from the chassis shop I will take pictures of the suspension and post them up.

 

funny thing is, it IS lower than I was planning too!

 

Is your suspension guy selling a rear kit?

 

I can ask him. I'm sure he can but welding will be required.
