That is a really good looking truck. Do you know what suspension drop it has? I really like the stance.

Thanks!! When I bought the truck I noticed all the springs were new and she sat really high, so...... I took the cheap route and removed 1.5 off from the front coils and put jeep springs in the rear. The front came down 4.5 and the rear came down 4 inches. It actually rides smoother now than before.

Thanks guys!! We had nice weather yesterday and I was able to get her out and cruise around for awhile. We have more storms coming late tonight, this is getting crazy! The truck is going back into the shop next week for a new grille and the white accent painted around it. Hey countrybiggen let me know when you move back!

What jeep springs did you use??? I have a full set of factory coils from an 03 jeep wrangler. I may not throw them out after all!

Hey J.Cagle I used 1999 wrangler springs, they fit perfect and brought it down 4" then the case of beer in the cooler brought it down another 1/4" :) Thanks A.T. RockDriller The weather here has been storm after storm, sideways rain, killer lighting and high winds. We had straight line winds clocked at 64 mph. All sorts of crap flew into the pool, but the truck was safe and dry!!!!!!!!!!
