ya the spindle for mininum 16" wheel is &#036;359 but the spindle for minimum 17" is &#036;260 did u have to buy new shocks for front or rear?

not at all. at least for the 2/4. but im definately getting some soon because i feel EVERYTHING. plus when i was trying to knock the upper and lower control arm loose from the spindle, i busted alllll the damn grease boots. so yeah. it just doesnt ride too great, but once i get shocks on there it should be better. after i put the roll pan on, i noticed the back raised up about half an inch or so. hardly anyone else notices it, but i do.

My 285/50 Gen Grabber UHP have a big rim protector. Ride up the curb and then slide back down and never get near the rim.......

Blackout00, a few of us just turned the torsin bar down to get the 2" drop in the front.... tooo easy

When you do the shackle and or hanger the pinion angle goes to hell and then you need to measure it prior to work and then shim it to get it back otherwise you will gain a vibration that to some will feel like the driveshaft is falling out. Suggest you look at the 4" drop springs. SCIV did his with springs and says he has no vibration. I did shackles and hate the squeeeeeeek and the 20 - 40 mph vibration it picked up.

Just some Info to think about......

the springs are 149 for one and it takes two so that would be 300 for springs when hangers are only 165....but ill consider it...im still shopping and researching...im not gonna buy for a few more days until im certain what i want...thanks
