Pic of my lowered 4x4

that thing is sweet, mine was going to come down today but the shorter ubolts didn't show up. i droped my other truck only about 1" all the way around and it handeled noticiably better. how does your truck handle? still smooth? does the front bottom hard when you go over a big bump? did you just remove the bump stops up front or cut them down or put on smaller ones?

Well I only drove it once since I dropped it, I need to go get an alignment. It was alittle stiffer in the front cause of this
Not bad tho, I haven't done anything with the bump stops yet, but I will. I have bad tire lean so I think I need to crank it up alittle. Will an alignment fix this

i was checking out the ss at the dealer, looks to me they aren't nearly that low. the bumpstop in the front is touching but not flatened at all. i would love to go as low quik but i will wait and see if they can align his truck before i go that low.
i wonder if that top bumpstop cup would just come off and put a small bump stop in it's place.
hey quik, in the rear did you just do the shackles and block removal? nothing else? did you get new ubolts or were the stock ones not too long?

Ya just those 2 things and I went and bought 2wd u-bolts. Still want to go lower looking at the options, flip kit? hangers? someone said to try getting the leaf spring compressed. As for the bumpstop cups, ya they can be cut off and replaced with a smaller bumpstop. The directions had that in there but I haven't had time to do it yet. I'm going to try a get a alignment today.

I havent showed my truck here cause I dont really know how to get pics on here. I was not at the Silverwood show but Joejoe(Joel Martinez) showed me his video. Joejoe has the blue singlecab with whipple and 20s. We were at the track yesterday. Joejoe's truck wasn't working right with a best of 12.74 but I did a new best time of 14.99. If you were there mine is the gold extended cab sportside.
