Your ball joints are going to be at less than ideal angles with that much drop from a spring in the front. More than likely you are going to have to cut the bumpstops down as well. You also have to deal with that issue of the springs falling over/out every time you jack up your truck. A lot of guys run 3" springs and report having no problems......but I wouldn't run em.

I would be one of those guys but it can be a pretty rough ride at times
