    Question Lowering

    So if just got done with a 2/4 drop and I'm not happy. I want a 4/6 now, I figured I would c-notch it for the rear, but I have no idea how to go another 2 inches in the front since its a 4wd???

    How did you lower the front? Keys or knuckles?

    +1 You may be close to maxing the cv angles out. Pull the tbars and lower the truck with a jack while watching the cvs and see.

    Go with the drop spindles.

    in my truck the 4" drop in the front did not affect the CV angle in a negative way. (keys and Drop Spindles used), Now 5" lower in the front is a CV shaft problem !!!!!!

    Racing is a real sport. Because football, baseball, soccer, and golf only require one ball.
