Default Dropped the truck today *pics*

Finally got some stuff done to the truck today. I installed half of my drop kit and my scan gauge. It was dirty but I couldn't post about it without pics. Its a 2" drop spindles, and 1" torsion crank up front and 4 in drop leafs in the back (supposed to be 3"). It actually went down about 3/4. I couldn't get the drop keys on till I get smaller tires. The drop shackles are gonna have to wait for the smaller tires too.

BEFORE

AFTER


Here the suspension hadn't settled yet


AND THE GAUGE (pod is temporary till I get my A/F gauge and the double pod)

looks good, but it will look a lot better with smaller tires, the stockers really fill in the wheel wells.

Thinking about 275/45/20 General Grabber UHP or 295/45 maybe even 295/40 for the 20s. I see some 22s in the spring so these tires and drop may do till then.

I think it looks great as it is. I wouldn't go any lower, but that's me.
