Hi, I'm new to this forum and was wondering if I could get some opinions on what to do. I have a 03 1500 single cab short bed. I can't decide rather to lift it or lower it. Any feedback is appreciated, thanks!cdca18de59f5dde333ccf64a94a18f9e.jpg

Same issue plagues me... if it wasn't so expensive to lower a 4wd down 4/6, I'd probably go that route. I'm half tempted to put on some lowering shackles and some 33" mud tires. Good luck on your decision!

Just remember mark we don't have to worry about getting snowed in so 4wd won't help us all we get is ice and it don't matter cause you ain't gripping nothing anyhow

So OP... the general consensus is lower. I've tallied the votes, no need to go back and recount or look again.

If it's 2wd then lift 7 inches with 40 in tires, and if it's 4wd throw some bags on it and slam it to the ground.
