pros and cons going with 4" rear drop leaf springs and lowering shackles to lower the rear.

[Smit999]

Ended up going with 3" lowering coils and 4" lowering springs and shackles. Also got a new set of shoes. 235/70/15 fronts and 275/60/15 rear. Sitting about 1" higher out back I like the way it looks and rides nice.

Looks amazing!

Scott,

Thanks for all the pictures! He is still deciding but seeing yours at 3/5 drop.. his 2/4 should work and keep his momma happy.. for some reason she does not like the lowered look. We finally got it home and he is driving it some finally. He wants to go to a bigger wheel size like a 18” or 20” to have a sporty look but we are not sure how to proceed so we are taking our time. Drop first? Then try to find wheels and tires after.. anyway, it’s his dime and project so I’m just sitting on sidelines watching. Starting vintage air next and a few other things before we get hot on the interior. He is super happy with it to this point! Thanks for all the info.. keep you posted.

Randy and Easton,
Your truck is coming along very nice. That's what make this hobby so good. There is no right or wrong as far as what you want your truck to look like. Just make it yours. I'm also looking into installing a Craftec Bed cover. What I like about the cover, it's easy to remove and the price.

Man, that's a beautiful truck. Like the color combo.
