DIfferent stances....pics of different heights

I don't know if this has been done yet or not but does anybody have any pics of trucks side by side that are lowered at different heights? I've been debating how low to if and when I do lower my long fleetside but not sure how low I want to go but definitely no more than 4\6. So any pics of trucks with 2\4, 3\5, 4\6 etc. side by side for comparison would be greatly appreciated and helpful in my decision.

Re: DIfferent stances....pics of different heights

Thanks for all the responses guys. I had been on the ECE site before just never saw the stance photos. As far as bagging it goes....I don't know much about installing bags, don't they require welding and cost more? I think I would rather stick to static since my truck is a low buck driver/project.

My kit was done in my garage between my best friend and I and there was zero welding involved. If you go into my build thread you can see the whole process....
