Re: What do y'all think???

gulfcoast .... has the oringinal springs in it still and yes just installed the 2 1/4 drop spindle kits...
Stepside65 ..... kit cost $500 but i had a proportional valve already and had to buy new front brake lines to make the install easier...
Slepsal .... the hardest thing about the installation was the removal of the upper and lower ball joints..... the install of the kit was easy once ball joints and brake lines (front) were replaced....

Re: What do y'all think???

i think it would look alot better if the rear came down just an inch. don't get me wrong i like the raked look, but i think that's just a little too much.
