Default LOWERED 06 1500HD CC 4x4 <--PICS

I thought that I would put up pics of first stage of lowering not really sure if I am going to go an 1" or 2" lower, not sure if my cv axle will allow it. After seeing OMEG's cv axles I may be able to go a little lower lol, would like to do spindles up front. Still trying to get my angles correct on the 2 piece drive shaft, because have a vibration. After I get my vibrations fixed exhaust is next. Either I will just do a cam or some type of root style super charger. Any good cams recommended for the LQ4, nothing too radical. Let me know what you think good or bad.

i like my 224r in my 5.3. for a lq4 i agree with^^tsp228r would be nice. do you plan on doing a stall also? when i do a 6.0 though im goin a bit more radical something custom spec'd maybe similar to the specs of a tsp v2

edit: just re-read your post where you said thinking of possibly going fi. in that case a blower cam and supercharger! lq4 is perfect for it since its lower compression than lq9

I like the current stance. Has a nice look with the rims and tires just the way it is.
