    Go 2/4, you'll be laughing at your buddy as he drags the frame on speed bumps and angled driveways.

    The only reason I'm thinking 2/4 is I go down dirt roads a lot, and the cattle guards may present a problem with much more I think.

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

    Dunno about the OBS's but the NBS's even on a 2/4 a notch would be a good idea. mine bottoms out a fair bit.

    4/6 put you right where you want to be, although you will need to be careful if some of your roads are really bad.

    A 4/6 on an OBS looks really good. You will most certainly want to notch the frame though. As long as youre fairly careful and dont hit bad roads to fast. I loved mine, and it never had to much trouble with bottoming out. If you ever want to go back up its a bit easier and cheaper than continuing lower (provided you save the stock parts). If you want I can send pics of my truck with both the 2/4 and 4/6 drops on it so you can get some ideas.
