Truck stance with Mono-leaf Lowering Springs

[NEWFISHER]

FWIW, I ( and several others) spent a few extra bucks and went with a dropped axle www.droppedaxles.com and couldn't be happier. Ride is great with the stock 8 leaf pack, bought all new steering arms and new style tir rods, pitman arm etc. Have ZERO bump steer, ride is better than expected, looks fantastic, can haul a load without bottoming out etc. I keep reading threads asking about mono leaf's, pulling leaf's ( which over time will rlax and create other issues) and I dont understand why not spend a few more bucks and do a dropped axle? Here's a shot of mine with dropped front, blocks/flipped rear. Install time including grinding perches from donor housing and installing shock mounts , all steering components etc. 1 saturday 8am till 2pm and came back Sunday from 9ish to just after lunch. Could be done in One day/eve with a couple guys, less if you didn't have to swap rear ends like I did. I ralley this thing around like a Honda, in and out of driveways at speed, parking lot speed bumps and it just performs well.

It's Sid's 4". After driving it a month, it has settled some. The leaf packs were new 8 months ago when I trailered it home and started putting it together.
