Re: whats the lowest i can go?
that question could only be awnsered by you. There are physical limitations but what pleases you is the key.

From the factory the rear of the truck sits 2" higher than the front, also the front end can only be lowered 2" without the suspension geometry being unreconcilable, so in order to drop the front more than 2" you have to get drop spindles, so you have to keep that in mind when you lower your truck. For example to level out a truck you would drop the front 2" and the rear 4" but for you since you want the hotrod look where the back end is slightly higher than the front end you will need a different ratio. For example, you can order springs with a 2" front drop and a 3" rear drop, if you want to go lower than that you buy 2" drop spindles, and the appropriate front and rear springs with only a 1" difference to maintain that hotrod look, also just incase you want a little more than an inch difference you can get half inch incriment drop springs as well. Was that clear as mud? Last edited by Xeen; 08-26-2012 at 03:39 AM. |
