I'm thinking you got the advertised drop :) I figured there wouldn't be much difference between reg & qc/cc springs.

My rear springs are stockers from a RCSB, cut down for a 2" drop. no difference.

I know they will fit, I sold him the GF kit which I had originally bought for my 2013 QC. There was speculation if it would offer the sale drop on a reg cab.

2" rear Lowering springs from Mcgaughys

I think this may be the route I go since I need the front and rear clearance in winter snow. Gives the truck a nice level look. I'm looking for a level look. It's lower, but not too low.
Would I need anything else besides these lowering springs for a reg cab 4X4?
Thanks. :favorites13:

The springs are all you need for a 2" drop.

I have ground force on mine with zero issues. CV angles aren't bad at all. At times I want to go an inch lower but fear potential issues and ride quality as well as clearance for still using it as a truck do to the length of my particular truck. Truck will handle much better than stock. I have zero regrets if you tow install the Durango bags they make a big difference when you put weight on the tongue. Great looking truck. Keep update pics coming!
