    I didn't, but I should have. You'll have a much better ride with new shocks. Stock shocks will be too tall, and thus cause the ride to be really stiff, as they have to compress more to fit the lowered truck. Monroe has custom shocks I believe, get some drop shocks that fit. Think you can measure some dimensions and they'll find some to fit.

    Hey man! Sorry it took so long to get back to you! I bought the McGaughy's 2/4.5 drop. (spindles, and flip kit for the back. I removed the overload spring, installed the flip kit, then put the stock shackles back on for a good 6 inches of drop. Installed the drop spindles in the front, but had to notch them to fit with the beefy 4x4 lower control arms. Not really that hard, just had to use a drill press and grinder. Also loosened the torsion bars just a little for an extra 1.5 inches of drop. The installed some McGaughy's air bags on the rear frame rails. Aired them up to about 15-20 psi, until the truck was perfectly level. I have a video on you tube of a walthrough, with the bed removed. Prolly help out alot!

    Hey sorry I am answering this so late. I used the GroundForce 2/4 drop kit which included front torsion keys and rear axle flip kit and longer shackles. If I were to do it over again, I would go McGaughy's drop kit and go 2/3. The use of the torsion key is unfavorable as I cannot get the front end to be aligned as perfectly as I want. 2" drop spindles is the way to go for sure. Additionally, the flip kit is too much and you get rear sway around corners. The ride is bouncy. I believe there are better ways to drop the rear and maintain factory ride/factory shocks. I cannot tow the same after the new shock install and recommend drop shackles. I hope this helps?!?

    Moody, I will have to order it in to here, paint it, then repackage it and send it to you. We charge $150 to paint the rollpan, shipping to you would be about $40, plus I would have to have it shipped here, so that is another $40. Price of the rollpan depends on which one you want.....all that said, I can save you some money.....I have a Street Metal rollpan already here. It sells for $150, plus the cost of painting and shipping, you would be looking at about $340, versus at least $450 for the Street Scene...

    I can, but you would probably be better off getting it painted locally, as paint doesn't seem to hold up well during shipment...

    Yes sir, that will still work on your Laramie, however you may have to drill some holes in your bumper to make it mount up to it...
