A 2" front/ 4" rear should get you pretty close to level. .....crazyL

if the tires are the same size
I did a 2.5/4 drop, but used 235-60's on the front and 255-70's on the rear....so, it's got a rake to it. I like it, tho. Kinda hot-rod lookin'....like, big and little's.
I believe you'll have to use the same size tires all around to see it looking level. Otherwise, it won't be.

I personally like a small rake myself!
Moose when it comes to lowering the front of your truck I know the springs are cheeper but I think it is best to start with the spindles then get a spring to drop you down an extra inch or two after you are done with all other suspension mods. since springs are one of the easier things to change! Also the spindles will not adversly affect your trucks ride characteristics! |
