Slammed!

Well I finally got my drop done! It worked out to be around 4.5 / 6 or so... Here's an idea of before with my gf's and friend's trucks:

I would if I could justify spending as much as they cost on them! If anything I'll get the 5 star 17s and plastidip them, or get some tahoe 17s... but for now these are staying

Go for it! It should look pretty similar if you end up doing it the same way

Just get some factory 17s. I don't like any bigger than 18s really on slammed trucks like ours

That's all I'm wanting, if you ever saw Dezert1500 over on PT, my truck is real similar in ecsb, want black 5 star 17s like that... would look pretty baller

Used stock coils that I cut to drop the front and a flip kit in the rear. I took 2 coils off the front.
Still need an alignment to fix my hellaflush camber right now :lol:

I wouldnt suggest cutting the coils tho especially that... Id just do the mc gaughy 4/6 with drop shocks and call it a day...any vehicle ive riden.in with hacked springs drove just like it sounds...

derrick did all the camber come out when aligned?

Taking it to a place tomorrow after I get done shooting for competition to get aligned. The camber should all come out when done, even though i have to admit it kinda looks awesome, just not too nice to the tires :lol:

And yea, buying a combo to drop would probably ride a little better, though for not having front shocks, I can't complain :)

Yea,mines a DD so I def dont want to hack the springs. Been ebay cruising n it seems like I could piece tgether a 4/6 drop cheaper than buying a kit. But I like the mcgaughys setup, so im prolly goin with that, just dont want a c notch. Want it low but not laying frame.

If u go lower than 4 in the back u need to notch. Really its no biggie

Great looking ride.

Thanks everyone.

I don't think the white gmc is on here, but he is Static06 on PT, and it's a 5/8 drop on 29 in tires.

All of the trucks are our DDs so :lol: to go lower than 4 you need a notch, no questions asked.

A 2/4 lools good with a 29" tire too... If you dont wanna notch it do that...

Iirc you may be able to get away with 3/5 if in the right size of tire or something like that.
Notching it wasn't a huge mess, LS2Aero knocked it out in a few hours even without the right tools :lol: definitely very sturdy.

2/4 or 3/4 does look good though :)
