unless you had access to regency's records it would be pretty hard to figure that out. without the trucks being numbered, only the dealer that sold the trucks to regency and regency would know. the only numbers i ever saw was in 04 they had 300 trucks total, half chevy, half gmc, half red/black, half black/red, half 4.8/stick and half 5.3/auto. i have tried to keep up with all of the rst info that i could find and that is the only numbers i ever saw. when you and another member started posting you had a sliver rst i thought it was bunk at first, but searched and found others that werent on here. i dont mean to sound like im discrediting your truck, there is just less info on those than the rest. sorry.

Yea I gotcha no worries. It was just out of curiosity. I know they're out there I've seen a few on other boards as well. Ive also seen a few on ebay but they were def beat on hard. I bought mine 2 years ago for 17,500 with 8k miles on it and honestly it sits more than it gets driven but I've had 2 other fullsize Chevys and this one is by far the most fun truck I've owned. Thanks for the info man

Need some opinions guys....

I'm thinking about lowering the truck just a tad bit more, I think I wanna attempt some auto cross and want to get the truck to sit lower.
Here's what I'm thinking.....

2" hotchkis drop coil in the front (take out the 1.5" groundforce)
Remove rear overload spring
Move rear leaf to other shackle hole (taking it down another inch)

Anyone have any experience with any of this on our trucks?
Im hoping this will have it sit perfectly level.

I don't know about our trucks but if you want it dowin in the rear about another inch I belive you can just switch the hole the shackle is in. When I looked at mine least I could take it down more.

Check out some of the pics of 2/4s there really isn't much difference between the ground force or any of the others.

If you want to go lower 4/6 would be your best bet but at that point you have to C-notch the frame. I wouldn't do that on one of ours.

I'd never tried on our trucks. Didn't know about the tips. sorry. when I did my other trucks I had to drop the hitch. Not the case here. I bet the drop was put on before the exhaust.
