Project "Blown HD" my 6/8 drop/shortblock/heads/cam/blower/tranny install

I have an HD as well that I was looking as dropping. Since you have the big wheels already the McGaughy's kit would work best but you have to run a 17 or bigger. So if you were looking to run some 16s at the track or whatever that would be a no go with their kit and the spindles. So instead I was looking at the DJM, it is lower control arms, shackles, and hangers. Just something to think about on the McGaughy's stuff, that is what is keeping me from ordering it right now because I wasnted to drop it, get it painted and then get the wheels. I also like the ability to run stock wheels and tires if I ever needed to
That's a really good point. How strong are the DJM control arms? that is my only concern

They were on my 1500 that was lowered 4-6 with 24" Bonspeeds with no problems. The reason I don't like being able to put the stockers on is right now my wife's Yukon has a problem with her wheels. But since she has 14" rotors the stock 16s won't be going on. I have to pull her wheels and tire and have them broken down and ship her wheels back to Velocity because the stainless rings that are the lip are loose. I am just waiting until her truck goes in for paint, it is such a PITA
