That's a cool way of getting the 4" drop, how does it ride?

I ended up going 4" with a 2" from shackles and 2" from McGaughy's Leafs, rides pretty good, but I will be able to tell more once I changed out the rear shocks.

it sits pretty level imo and it rides good for being on stock shocks and no real drop kit


this is what i used to compress the leaf spring, it's like a traction aid i guess you can say. Blown06 had it on his truck (i seen it in his for sale thread)

sorry the truck is dirty, i just got done swapping the converter out.

Looks very good setting like that, almost perfectly level.

I had the front of my stock leafs clamped like that before I changed them out.

I will post pics up later tonight or tomorrow of mine done 2/4, just got it back from a front end alignment a little bit ago.

I know right, lmao...dropped by the house for lunch and grabbed the digital camera and wasn't the least bit surprised that it shut off while I was standing in my front yard trying to snap a few shots...wife had it all day at a baby shower yesterday...

Now the damn thing doesn't have enough juice for me to pull the pics from it...looking for my all in one handy dandy memory card reader to see if it took any pics...
