I installed this kit this past weekend and that's correct. No drop in the front. I was pretty disappointed but it handles like a completely different animal now and sits level. I ordered the mcgaughys 2" drop spindles to get the front to drop where I want it. I'll probably end up having to go lower in the back to get rid of the rake.good write up. I know this is a little old but still very useful.
I am confused about your measurements though. When you started you had a gap between the fender and tire of 4" front / 7.125" rear. After you finished your gap was 4" front and 4" back. What happened to the 2" of drop you were supposed to get up front?

It's possible it went down a little. I never measured the front until after. I was going by the 4" the OP had mentioned. Looking back at pictures I have of the truck a few years ago, there's definitely less gap.I installed this kit a couple weeks ago and I got 2" up front and 3.75" out back. I find it odd that both of you got no drop up front when myself and many others on here got a full 2". I wonder if they sent y'all the wrong parts or something.

Can anybody fix the pictures on the sticky please! It would help me more, I'm currently doing this install.
Im on my desktop and I cant see any pictures at all
