Re: How low should I go?

What about a 3/5 coil spring drop? is there any other suspension parts that you need to change or modify?

Re: How low should I go?

lmc truck says if you lower the rear 5", you need to C-notch and add an adjustable tracking arm, is that true?

An adjustable track bar, and shock mount relocators, yes. No need for a notch though, not even with a 6'' drop.

LMC is a bunch of knuckleheads. Like Powell said, 6 inches is fine w/o c-notching.
