Go through one of our vendors... 3rdStrikePerformance. Feel free to send him a PM. They will get you best price on just about anything you want for these trucks (yes, they pricematch). On top of the best prices, their customer service is absolutely stellar -- you wont beat it anywhere else.

Mcgaughy's kits are the absolute best. Duane from "3rd strike performance" sells them for great deals. He's a vendor on this site. Start a thread in his section, and he'll answer all your questions!

Yes, McGaughys rocks... and if you have the xtra cash to spend, go with the spindles in the front instead of coils! That's what I have and they rock!

Woo! Another lowered one comin along!

Yeah I am runnin the 2/4.5 with spindles in the front and flip kit in the rear... Ya the spindles are hard to find on the cheaper side... You could always just get the coils for now and save the money and when you get the chance, buy the spindles seperate if you ever wanted to

LoL, no problem... I got lucky and found my whole kit from a guy for $400 shipped. But that didn't include the drop shocks, which you will definitely need. I went a week with the stock shocks on there and it sucked lol.

Also, when you do drop it, I recommend taking off your OEM bump stops for the rear axle or else you'll be hittin on every little bump in the road and it'll be like a lifted up 4x4. Once you get those drop shocks and smaller bump stops, it'll ride like a caddy.

Are you goin with the 2/4.5 or lower?

Can't wait to see the finished product
