Re: pics of your lowered straight axel 3100

Thank you so much Don, that is the stuff I need to hear. I can't wait to assemble my frame with the new springs and dropped axle and I want to have a good I idea of how it will look as I make my choices.

I don't want mine quite that low so I am thinking the three inch dropped axle and stock front springs and three inch dropped rear springs is the direction I am going. I kinda want it more than that but maybe 4" total would be a max so if there is a front spring that drops it only an inch or so that would be what I would use. Now you got me wondering if I should just get these springs and no dropped axle! 3" is not quite as much as I want but darn it, that is getting close.


But the education I am getting from you guys is priceless, thank you so much!

Brian
