Im gonna do the MCG kit 3/5...however Im not gonna use all the rear parts they give like new hangers and longer shackles. Im gonna do the flip kit and use stock hangers, but Im gonna buy 1" lifting shackles from DJM so it will be 7-1=6" rear drop. The front will be the MCG 2" spindles and 1" springs. I still want to run a decent sidewall tire (around stock size like yours) but with room to flex and not rub. My driveway is steep so I cant go too low. Plus with this setup I figure I can allways add 2" front coils and put factory shackles back on if I want to go lower in the future. I love the looks of the 4/7 I just dont think I can go that low.

Heres my truck now (the 2wd z71 stickers will be removed when I drop it)

I was thinking the EXACT same thing.....
Truck looks great as it is.... Can't wait to see it dropped....

from the looks of the pics it looks like you the whole mirror is painted black what did you do, smooth them out and then painted them...how long did it take and how much did it cost?

Thanks guys, the mirrors were taken apart completely, smoothed and painted. I also had my tailgate handle done the same time.

man that looks so good i wish they made them like that from the factory...did you do it yourself or did you take it to a shop...also you should have done that to the tailgate wing or whatb every you call it i ve been thinking about getting that color match also with the black part in the front of the truck and the rear bumper

I had everything done at my painters, I dont have the skills to do that myself. Im not sure what Im gonna do with the tailgate. I have thought about getting the flush one and having that painted, and also thought about having my painter fill the holes and paint the gate. However, I still use this as a truck, which means sometimes I haul lumber thats longer than the bed, or a ladder or my sons kfx50 4 wheeler and my dirt bike by using ramps...thats why I cant go too low (althougth the 4/7 makes me drool).

I cant wait till I get mine lowered so it looks as good as your trucks. Im planning on dropping mine while Im off for christmas so Santa better get off his a$$ and get my drop delivered early

Sorry if I temp hijacked the thread with Q/A's...I just wanna make sure I get this drop right the first time and the help is greatly appreciated
