Don't you know a lowered truck is impractical in this part of Illinois?!

I've got the Belltech 964sp, springs and shocks. Some people experience a wobble in the rear end at higher speeds and have to buy an adjustable panhard bar to help it. It's a truck by truck basis though, and I have no issues.

I had bad wobble. At first it was 60mph added the PanHard adjustable bar then it was anything over 70mph added the Tires and Hellwig sway bar and that killed my wobble issue.

It don't get no better than that brother man!!! Unless you add QA1 shocks but they want 2k for 4 fully adjustable shocks....
My pockets ain't that deep! Man I wish you was closer it's not a big deal dropping these things.

Adjustable QA1's are only about 650 a set. Not 2 grand.

The correct answer is none, you don't lower trucks... You lift them :insane:
