Stupid Drop Question
Hey guys,
This may be a dumb one, but want to clarify. Are the 2/4" drops meant to level the truck? I've had my eye on the ECE premium 2/4 drops and am ready to pull the trigger, but kind of like the rake of my truck. Should I just try to go 2/3 to keep the rake? Thanks!

Re: Stupid Drop Question
I am putting on a 2/5 drop and might have it done this weekend if the rear parts get to my house. But I also have some freaky big tires on the rear so it might be hard to tell.

Re: Stupid Drop Question
I put on the "5 inch" flip kit and it only dropped 3.5 inches. Also have the 2 inch front drop springs.
