I advise you to take measurements now & before taking the truck apart (now for ordering parts; before you start just to make sure nothing has changed). Take them WHERE you disassemble things so you have a solid control point in case you need to reference back to 'what you started with'. I write it all down in a little pocket notebook so I have it for reference. (and put it on masking tape @ each wheel opening for quick confirmation).
awesome. I think im going to drop the front first... then i can play the back by ear and adjust what height it needs to be..... Just trying to find the best spindles right now... should i do a 2inch or 3inch spindle?? i would love to get a 4/6 drop.. i love on the outside/country.. the roads suck so i would like to get the best spring to spindle ratio..
