Waiting for people to tell you how dumb it is to drop a 4wd…

This kit should work because spindles have the holes for 4wd clearance. I’ve been contemplating doing the same but need some ground clearance around the farm, so just went with a reverse level (stock front, 2” drop rear).

I had 2” shackles then decided to drop it some when I did my front lower ball joints. I did 2” McGaughys spindles/knuckles and 3” BellTech leaf springs. BellTech also makes a 3.5” lowering leaf spring. You could do a 2” spring and a 2” shackle too.

i ended up buying a mcgauthys kit from this website https://switchsuspension.com/dodge-ram-1500-2006-2008-2-4-5-deluxe-drop-kit-mcgaughys-part-44014/

it was saying it would work for a 4wd but when i took it to the mechanic shop the guy ended up saying it wouldnt fit because the spindles would hit my cv axle ruining it. What do you think ?

My CV’s clear fine.Those are the same knuckles I have. I was looking on here for a pic I had posted because it’s dark outside. The only one I found has a photobucket watermark across it. But I’ve had no issues in 60k miles on mine. I can take pics after work tomorrow if needed.

thanks. ill send a photo too of my cv axels as soon as i wake up in the morning, i would appreciate it if i could get a photo too if you can. Im guessing the mechanic guy isnt too familiar with the kit lol.

This is a picture of it. There should be no problem installing it on my ram ?

I think you’d be fine. You’ll have the cv shaft a little closer to the bottom of your spring/strut base but that doesn’t move. Mine is a torsion bar setup but the axle is almost horizontal just sitting there.
