Ok i'm getting ready to order my suspension lowering parts. Heres what i'm thinking about so far: DJM rear flip kit part#-FK10125 $150.99 DJM front coil springs "3 drop part#-CS23533 $152.99 rear c-notch kit part#-63167MGY $134.99 front drop shocks [toxic shocks] part#-413509 $36.99ea. rear drop shocks [toxic shocks] part#-418509 $36.99ea. These are all from stylintrucks.com, sorry not good posting links! Have any of you guys used any of these parts? Any comments good or bad? Is there anything else that i will need that i have overlooked?? Also will i need to order a shim kit for my pinion angle with the flip kit? The flip kit is a bolt in so i think thats the one i want, [no welding]! Also will the 3-inch lowering springs without drop spindles? I want to static-drop the truck as low and cheap as possible! Any thoughts or opinions would be a big help!!! Thanks Joseph

Thats a good thought! The frontend on my truck is already pretty good and i'm trying to keep this lowering project as cheap as possible. I know i'm going to have to replace the front sway bar bushings the one on the drivers side lower a-arm is completely gone! You do bring up a good point tho! Thanks, Joseph
