Default 2/4 drop guys....Hows your traction?
Been thinking really hard on dropping my truck down to a 2/4 drop but was curious how traction has increased or decreased with you guys after the drop And also will cal-tracs work better or the same?

I had to change my pinion angle with shims. Also instead of c-notching the frame I added helper bags. Rides good and gets pretty good traction.
