Pretty sure your correct....

When I tear my truck down in the future I will probably add a notch and go 5/7.

Right now I think you would hit frame an anything that isnt smooth. My truck will never haul anything but I drive it hard and have bottomed out a couple times as it sits.

thats is correct.. No C-Notch same setup from E.C.E in the rear just added a 1/2" block and cut the bump stops some still have plenty of room..

72BlckButy · 01-20-2012, 03:34 PM

Surprised you've bottomed out so much... I haven't yet; only once.

I think I have only bottomed out 3x total.

Once over train tracks and once on the freeway on a nasty bump at about 90

front tire actually scrubbed the inner fender a tad on that one

72BlckButy · 01-20-2012, 10:38 PM

Alright.... we need some pics.

I need to see how it sits now.

Would you mind posting a pic of the u-bolt nut and threads that remain now that you've added the small block? Just want to see how many threads remain "outside" the nut.

Thanks!

heres the driver side, ill get you the passanger asap and a count of the threads, however on the passanger side i actually have a 1/2" block and a 1/4" it made the truck even on measurement. some how when i lowered my truck the first time i missed it that there was a 1/4" block on the driver side so i moved it to the passanger side and its perfect now, but the threads are shorter on that side also.
