Re: Low83 Pics II

anybody have any input if the control arm will be riding on the bump stop. It would be around a 3-4 inch drop with spring only

Shaun, you'll have to shave the bump stop to get added clearance if you cut 2 coils, i've had no problems bottoming out, thought this pic would show better, i'll try to get another pic of the front end

Re: Low83 Pics II

thanks for the reply. yea i cut one coil and put the same size front tires that you have on my truck and it dropped it about 3 inches but i want to go lower and hopefully keep the same ride. I bought a shackle kit for the rear so now with another coil off and the shackles i will have a 4/6 drop

Yea see if you can get another picture that shows how much clearance you have in there- thanks a lot!
