Taking off lift, want to make a deal

The body lift and suspension lift are going off the truck and am going for the lowered fast 4wd setup. I know some of you here have been wanting to get a lift and Im wanting to make a deal with someone if they want to help me take it all off and give me some cash for the lowering components which arent much at all. This is because my dumbass scrapped the stock knuckles and the cut diff. bracket. SO I was thinking maybe we could swap the diffs. out during the part out because you have to cut the front differential anyway to put it on the truck w/ lift. Ill also be getting rid of my Wheels/Tires for a decent price and buying 18 boyd cottingtons w/ street tires, so if any of you guys are interested let me know. My lift is a Rough Country 6" Suspension Lift (Knucke Kit with 5" blocks in rear) and a 3" PA Body Lift

PM me for more info or just post in here!

All Im going to do is spend more money and tear more crap up if it stays lifted though! That motors going to be hell on the rear end and tranny. Even when I do get them built up! The truck does look awesome but I can get it faster and nicer looking cheaper than keepin it lifted :(. Then Ill be able to keep up with you ricky! HOW CUTE :spit:

Yea, The lift and tires puts double if not triple the amount of stress on all the components. IMO I think thats the reason all my crap was breaking.:spit:

I'm all for your idea man...when I first got mine I wanted to lift it with big tires, but I've always been into lowered stuff and fast trucks. Cars are too easy to make fast...a fast truck is a challenge. +1 for lowered 4x4!

This is almost exactly what I was thinking...I wanted to do a 6" lift and big ass tires and lights and all the bells and whistles....then I realized I wanted to go fast more than be up in the air breaking s**t left and right. Its about time to start finding a 3/4 drop for me!

Im probably gonna order the DJM 2-4 4wd kit with keys and shackles/hangers, then order summit street shocks. Thats what everyone on GMFS told me to run instead of the DJM ones. I need someone to buy my friggen wheels first though!:hyper2:

Hahahaha nice! I am debating a 3/4 or a 4/6....I think 4/6 may be too low for my likes..
You gonna be running the Summit street shocks all the way around? I was thinking about having Jon do a 4-link out back and running air, just in the back, and coilovers up front...

Hey at least you are going to the meet. My poor ass wont be able to :(
Mainly cuz I live almost 1000mi away...but also cuz my truck may not have a motor in it at that time...Im really hoping for the swap to start picking up here in the next few weeks or so...
