Really nice truck Melmann. Is the kit spindles or coils? How do you like the DJM shocks?

my4by2 · 03-24-2011, 09:49 PM

^ Love it man!!! Great looking truck & you got a 6.0L too!!! Mine's a crew cab & getting the LY6 VVT 6.0L - can't wait to see how it drives!

Melmann · 03-25-2011, 07:08 AM

The front end is set up with lower A arms. They have a lower pocket for the original coils to ride in. The shocks work well with the DJM system. Very little bounce, the ride is actually decent, my wife doesn't mind riding. The rear has the shackle set up.
