Uh, I totally disagree. I think I move out just fine and on the street no 2wd is going to ever leave me at a light. A lowered 4x4 just rocks the launch, eat your heart out

here is the deal i can go fast when i am lower. 4x4s r not always ment to lift.
if i wanted to lift then i would have done it.
but i do not want to lift it.......
so ...
i asked a question and u r not helping.
i dont need ur .02 cents

yeah what GMracer said you can do. the rear of a 4x4 truck is the same as a 2wd truck, so you could add hangers, or put in stock shackles and do a flip kit.

for the front DJM makes 3" lowering LCAs (which is what I will be installing on mine shortly). you could also do 2" spindles up front, or you could get some lowering torsion keys which will probably get you 3" up front.

i personally plan to do a flip kit in the rear and on the front i will be installing the DJM arms, and possibly installing drop keys as well in order to get the front as low as the rear.
