Thanks, I know, many people do, some great offerings out there! My question is how did they work on your truck?

I am rolling through my head how much to drop it, and how to accomplish that. I am thinking the 3" dropped springs in the back, if I want to go more I can simply add lowering blocks to fine tune it.

I may go with the 4" but I am thinking the 3".

But the front, omg that is a whole different thing, dropped axles dropped springs, damn there is a hell of a mix. I would love to not have to drop the axle, and go with the mono leaf springs with a 3" drop. I just don't think 3" is enough for me, so a photo of a truck with a 3" drop front and rear would be awesome.

Be it with stock springs and a 3" dropped axle or a stock springs with a 4" dropped axle. something to give me some ideas.

Thanks to all who have posted.
