4/6 drop and Shocks on their way!

[reelop19]

So here it is. I like it but I wish I would've went with taller tires. Maybe a 50 instead of a 40. Anywho, now it just needs some flat black paint and some pinstriping.

Looks really cool. I dig the blue. I agree on the taller tires though, but doesn't look bad. Are you going to paint the whole truck flat black?

Yep the whole truck is my plan but I don't know when. Right now I really need to get rid of my SRT front bumper. It sits lower than a stock front bumper and is like 3-4" from the placement. If anyone is in Central Florida and wants to trade let me know.

275/45/20 is perfect for a 3rd at 4/6, that's what I used on my old silver '02, sadly I only took a few when I went down to 5/7.5 then traded her in like a dummy.

Just my two pennies, the cheaper alternative to buying new, taller tires is of course going lower. Get some 2" drop shackles and cut a 1/2 of a coil off the front springs.

When dropping mine using 2" spindles and a 1" cut spring using 285/55-20 tires I had inner fender liner rub and contact with the fender lip. I re-aligned the front using a little more camber to clear the fender lip and adjusted the bumper to limit suspension compression to stay off of the liners. I first used hard polyurethane bumpers but found them to be too hard, I finally ended up using Timbren rubber springs rated at 930 lbs each. These solved the problem and I've used them for the last couple of years. The Timbren can be seen in the photo on the left.
