Dropmember worth it?

[energiesource]

I'm sure alot of people are going to say it is, but i want to know what most of you think, the drop member is $1475 and that is just for the setup itself, no airbags, nothing suspension-wise, just the frame part itself, is it worth it? or is there a cheaper alternative to do the same?

Is their cheaper, Yes! Is their cheaper to get the same results, not by a long shot! With Porters set up you get better geometry to help thses trucks really handle well when built right. You also get more ground clearance even with a lower stance, Power rack and pinion ect..ect...ect!
Spend the money you will not regret it.

I agree with Rokcrln! If there was one area to spend the extra money it is the front suspension. It is the most important on the truck. Does the stock stuff handle okay. Sure it does. Now I wanted something a little better than Okay. That was why i went with the dropmember. Plus you get a little bit more than just the dropmember when you buy from Nathan. You get TOP NOTCH support from someone who is very smart. Now i am a little bias since Nathan has givin me sooooo much support that has gone way beyond what i have bought from him. Anyways that is just my experiences and my .02. Good luck and start saving those pennies.

I think you asking for a pic of what the dropmember looks like installed. Here you go. As for the rear suspension it is all me. Nathan gave me some tips and advice on building the cantilever setup but i did all the work.

If you want to go superlow and you don't want (or are incapable of) to perform a bodydrop or a Z, it seems like a bargain. I can't commit myself to one at this time but I'm thinking about buying another frame and going Porterbuilt front and back.
