Drop kit ?

Has any one installed a 4/6 drop kit on their truck using the stock rally wheels? If so what did u have to do to get the rims to fit in front? I have a belltech kit with spindles and flip kit. Was just wondering before I install it on my 85

Re: Drop kit ?

I lowered mine on stock rallys, all I had to do was trim a little off of the front of the lower control arm till the rim didnt grind when turned lock to lock.
