Porterbuilt stage1 front/stage 2 rear basic drop ?

Does anyone know how much drop I can expect to get with these Porterbuilt kits. Or better yet have pictures of trucks with this setup?

Thanks I appreciate it. This is the truck I plan to install the porterbuilt stage 1 front and stage 2 rear on. And yes it is a 3/4 ton. I think this will work good because I can get it a lot lower and still raise it back up when I want to use it as a truck or tow with it.

Not the same year... but it should be helpful in determing the drop. This truck is running a 2.5" drop spindle as well as Stage 1 Front and Stage 2 Rear Basic kit.

I love the stance and the look of that truck!

I was looking at the different slam specialties bags and was wondering. The SS7's have a load rating of 2262 lbs. and the SS8's have a load rating of 2821 lbs. Since this is a 3/4 ton big block truck could I use the SS8 instead of the SS7 without any extra modification? Will the SS8's have a stiffer ride? Trying to keep it a 3/4 ton with the option of changing the stance and ride height while also getting a better ride. Dont know if this is asking too much or even possible to do. Right now it rides like a brick with the stock 45 year old coil springs.

You could run the larger bag up front no problem, Just need to remove the steering stop/bumpstop bracket on the lower control arm. Also, if it has a factory sway bar, you may need to trim it slightly so it doesn't touch the bags.

Keep in mind, Slam Specialties just had a price change... the Slam Bags are now WAYYYY spendy when compared to the Dominators. The Dominator is a great quality bag and is a better deal for the price.
