Re: ECE drop springs ride quality

One other thing , if your truck does not have a front sway bar I'd highly recommend getting a 1 1/4" sway bar with the polyurethane bushings and ECE sells the bar and bushing too. I'm attaching a pic of one of the board members trucks with the drop I have outlined. I know this truck has the 2 1/2 dropped spindle and 5" dropped coils but not sure if it has the 1" dropped front spring. The truck has 255/70/15's all the way around.
That truck still has stock height front springs. If you do a search for member 71see10 you will see his pics with his new 17" wheels.
