Thanks guys, it's pretty close to a 4/7, it was a 2/4 in the first pic.

Here's the specs on the suspension


Front:
McGaughy's 16"+ wheel 2" drop spindles(dezert1500 spindle mod)
V6 Coil springs with app 1 coil cut for 2" drop
Doetsch 3way shocks

Rear:
Belltech flipkit, (6" drop)
Belltech 2" shackle (set at 1")
Caltracs
Overload leaf removed
4* pinion shims
McGaughy's c-notch
DJM carrier bearing relocation
Doetsch drop shocks


Rides great, little bouncy when the sway bar is disconnected!

Can't wait to try a sticky tire on it and see what 60' she'll do!

i NEED to get my truck that low. right now my truck is about a 3/5

3" front coils
belltech street performance shocks

4" rear leafs
2" shackles
raised about 1" with aftermarket overloads
c-notch
toxic drop rear shocks

what size tire are you running? do your front tires rub the fenderwells? do you have problems turning? did you roll the rear fender lips?

275/45s all around.

Front is mini tubbed, rears are rolled. They rub occassionally up front, but nothing I can't live with!
