    My truck is begging...

    for an altitude adjustment. I can't stand these wheel wells not being filled up. As far as how low, my truck is a 4x4 and the only possible way to drop the front is 2" spindles. So it's looking like it will be a 2/5. The rear will be 2" shackles, block removed (1.5"), and either new leafs or remove the leaf above the overload for another 1-1.5". Anyone see a problem with this? I mean other than the fact that its a z71? Lol

    I looked into this... what I found was a lot of the guys used McGaughy's 34014 kit with success... it's an adjustable drop, 2 for the front and 4 or 5 for the rear... you might want to look into that, IIRC it's in the like 4-500 range.

    Why not just flip the rear end? That should make it pretty close to level in the ass end. Hook better too.
