Fender well height on 4/6 drop.
I recently dropped my truck with a 4/6 drop. Spring 2"/spindles 2" in the front and 4" leaf and 2" shackles in the rear with C-notch. For some reason the rear is still higher by about 2" or so. If I am correct do they make hangers that can lower the rear 2" more. If this is true how hard are the stock ones to replace. I would imaging it's grinding of the rivets and putting the new ones. What height is the top of your fender well's for front and rear for those of you who have put a 4/6 drop on your truck. I would like to see how mine compares to yours. My front is 28" and the rear is about 29 3/4". Also what kind would you all recommend?

Re: Fender well height on 4/6 drop.
Yes, you can add hangers. I used to have a 5/8 on my truck and the 8" was achieved with 4" leafs, 2" shackles and 2" hangers.
Yes, hangers a royal pain in the butt to install. The grinding of the rivets is one thing, but to get to everything on the driver's side you're either going to have to drop the fuel tank or pull the bed off and work from above. |

Yes hangers suck to replace.
