I just finished dropping my truck 2.5/4 (spindals and springs & adj. track bar)
I've been planning this for awhile and finally did it and I could'nt be happier with results.. What do you think ?

A special thanks to GMCPAUL'S for great sales and service !

THANKS,
JOHN

WHYBYNU that is one super sweet ride you have there. I've been on the fence as to how low to drop my truck and was toying with 2 1/2 4 or a 2 1/2 5 drop and after seeing yours I'll do the 2 1/2 4 .. Where did you get your engine air cleaner and valve covers I like them too. Is that a Le Carra Mahogany single slot steering wheel in your truck? If yes, was it an easy install? I'm wanting a wheel like that in black or charcoal and on the fence to get a double or single slotted one..

**Yukon Jack** · 05-30-2005, 12:34 PM

Definitely looks great!

mocwon · 05-30-2005, 01:44 PM
