Ive done a few of these, coilovers work the best but are the most expensive. Is it a DD or a race only truck? How much drop are you looking at?

coil overs have a way better ride and they are adjustable. I recommend relocating your rear shocks though for best results

It’ll be a weekend truck . I want to be able to drive it. But I also want something that will benefit my launches . I, think 4/6 on a 15x10 and 17x7 set up
