Here is a pic of the ground force 3/5...I think the 2/4 is a waste of money imo.

I had a mcgaughy's 2/3 on my titan and it was of good quality. I probably am going to do their 4/6 drop

I had the ground force 3/5 kit on my truck with replacement leafs. Its a great kit and rode fantastic. Still easily run the factory size tires with no rubbing.



Its a 5" rear drop if you retain the rear block, remove the block for a 3/6 which is what I ended up doing.

Well you just drop the tank a little. I was intimidated by that, but hell it was easy. I just made sure I had 1/4 tank of gas or less before I started. The tank is plastic so the only weight is what gas you have. You just remove the 3 small screws at filler neck, put something under tank to hold it, then remove 2 bolts that hold the straps on, then lower some and push over a little towards the driveshaft...thats it. Just have to move it enough to get your hand in there. No disconnecting wires/fuel lines etc.
