Re: droping the rear
you actually have that backwards, to go low, you WANT a 2 piece.

Re: droping the rear
can you put pictures up of a side shot of your truck with the front wheels straight i am trying to put 22"s on my truck but dont like how the wheels are not centered. also i have the 2.5 drop spindles but the original springs and i think i dont have enough clearance. your truck looks good

Re: droping the rear
where did you get your spindles from? with the wheels i have on there currently they stick out about 1/2 inch out from the fenders and it bothers me i want them to be flush. one more thing how tall are your tires?
