Default What Drops are Level? 4/6 or 4/7

Just curious,

Are the NBS Regular Cabs 2" or 3" higher in the back from the factory?

Basically is a 4/6 or 4/7 drop level?

All the best,
Matt

4/7 is closer to level. I prefer 4/6 myself. The back always looks lower in pics of 4/7 drops to me.

Depends on a few factors. If you have a quality job on the notch, and the bed doesn't move, then a 4/6 is level. If you have a bad notch install and the bed raises up and looks bent, then you need a 4/7 or more to look level.

My truck is 4/6 and can be seen in my signature. It's perfectly level to my eyes
