you can get pretty low, theres an under bed notch kit that will let it lay out on 20's, i have been doing a ton of research the past few days as i plan on bagging my 04 sierra within the next couple months...one thig i have heard is that once you go past 5/7 the tranny crossmember becomes an issue, but AVS sells a raised rossmember for about 150 bucks...AVS also carries the underbed notch. on mine i plan to do a 2-link in the rear, i didnt initially want to do a 2 link but i have heard from a bunch of people around town that they have been running 2-links on their DD's with no issues for years, Ekstensive sells a reasonably pricd bolt-on 2 link for ou trucks, no cutting required..bolts ino the hangers and axle.
