Well i finally got the drop put on this past weekend.. I'm very satisfied with it and the ride is better than when it was leveled with the 33's on it. I didn't get very pics during the install all i had was my camera on my phone as i forgot the digital. It has some "cali" lean to it but im gonna put the 1" lift hanger on it and bring it up a little in the rear as its a little to low. The left rear was lower by about 1 1/2" so after everything was done we loosened the hanger bolts on the right side and stood in the bed and retightned them... The bushings were kinda in a bind and it did help alot with the "Chevy lean" after that we just cranked the t-bar on the drivers side to get it almost perfect.... Enough blabbing here's some pics


Sprayed some of that rubber coating it looks like **** but its protected

It was a bolt in but i decided i wanted it bolted in and Then had my buddy weld it up

Lol some SEVERE cali lean



Thats all the pics i got during the chop up wish i coulda got some more but oh well.

Now onto the finished product!!

BEFORE:



AFTER:







CV angles




The drop consisted of a flip and notch in the rear and mcgaughys 2" drop spindles and 3/4 ton keys up front had it aligned yesterday and the camber was .1 out of spec after the alignment which was close enough for me and the caster was a hair off but no biggie it drives straight as a arrow and def handles so much better!!!

Ive had the leveling kit on for almost 3 years and the front end is still original and the 4x4 works great the cv's are in no more of a bind lowered than they were leveled 3/1
Yea sometimes it feels wierd sitting down instead of hopping up
