Re: Drop Question?
When you start to hit the 4-5 drop is when mods start coming into affect

Re: Drop Question?
The only thing I can think of is to look at it and determine if you want shock relocators.It'll work wthout but you'll get better shock action with them.

Re: Drop Question?
The only thing that might become s problem is wishing you had gone lower
Kidding of course.. but the front end will basically ride and feel just like it did before the drop. In the rear I would do 1 or 2 degree pinion shims and shock relocators but you would be ok without them. Have you considered a sway bar for the front? Posted via Mobile Device
