Re: im dropping my truck this weekend
you can get away with them for now if they compress that much like flaming said, but you will have to change them eventually. if its only for a couple weeks, do it!

Re: im dropping my truck this weekend
I trimmed the top of the rubber bumper off to get more clearance, Looks much better lowered !

Re: im dropping my truck this weekend
Looks real good.
Is that a 3" drop spindle + 2" coil drop? Opps I see you cut the spring. How much did you cut off? Hey since you have your bumper off can you measure the distance between the frame horns for me, outside to outside? I have one bent in and I need to know before I can go to pulling on mine.
