I don't think you should have cut that off man. GM put that there cuz thats as fas as the suspension can drop before it will rip out cvs and bind up the tie rods and ball joints. If your cranked that much, your front end parts are going to start breaking asap!

I really hope you didn't do that.

Better warn the first guy who racks your truck. Might pull the shocks apart with that much downward travel.

^^^^^And you're gonna tear that front end apart.
