How about Hotchkis 2" springs in the front and DJM 4" shackles in the rear. That way it will get better straight line traction. I have heard the hotchkis rear leafs are not very good for traction, too stiff and don't transfer weight. Plus this would be cheaper. What do you think?

Here's a pic of my truck with a DJM 2/4 and some 20's

I have some bumpsteer in the front but I'm sure it's because I'm running the Edelbrock IAS shocks up front and they're pretty damn stiff.

Got my truck's front end aligned. IT drives great now and no noticeable handling problems. The rear is still too high. It seems that it only dropped about 3" as opposed to 4" which it should have but....it will be good since I haul motorcycles pretty often. Next is to get the moldings and badges removed, the whole truck professionally waxed and buffed, and a billet grill and polished bowtie. Then I think I am done with the appearance mods. Simple and clean is how I like it. Then save up for the Vortech.
