sorry i havnt gotten to your previous comment but here ya go

front, 2 inch drop spindles, we put a 3 inch drop spring in but it was way to low rubbing fender liners to much for a daily. so we took the factory spring and cut 3/4 inch of the coil off. thats the front the back we raised the spring perch 1 1/2 inches and used 4 inch belltech drop springs. for shocks i used the nitro 2 drop shocks for a 5 inch drop,

i plan to go lower once i get new tires, but that will involve cutting in the front next

oh and BTW rides 100xs better than stock so smooth going down the road
