i have DJM lower control arms that dropped the front end 3" on my 2500HD

for the rear i did shackles and hangers, id start with shackles first though and decide how low you wanna go.
My bad..... I have a '99 3/4 ton & was thinking the suspensions were the same through '01 on the HD trucks.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
