Any one with any suggestions? Which front ifs setup is lower or pros and cons of any company. Lower the better.

Lay it out, no doubt Porterbuilt. I can't recommend Scott's, my dad did one on his car (slammed air ride), couldn't make it work correctly. He ended up cutting it off, throwing it in the trash, and buying a morrison clip.

Porterbuilt pros: It works, and will lay the rockers on the ground. Cons: you have to cut off frame rails.

If you want to keep the stock frame rails, I wouldn't know which IFS to pick.
