Found this Pic a while back..I guess its from one of the members on here just dont exactly who maybe they will chime in soon.:D

Really like the drop stance! wondering if this is one of Tony's lowering kits or what? I have Tony's Kit 2.5" in front & 3" drop in rear but its not as low as this so wanted to know if its Tony's or if not who's and specs on drop. Thanks:rock:

The truck belongs to raymondwebb(screen name, possibly actual name :D)
 
Well like I said I have Tony's extreme drop 2.5" in front and 3" in rear and the gap between my tire and fender is way more then what he has on his truck. so he has to have more of a drop then mine. Does Tony offer a kit with more then the 2.5" in front and 3" drop in rear??
 
really the gap depends on tire size too. the front drop is okay i wouldnt go any lower in the front because then you would run into rubbing issues and then there is no fun in that at least for me you wouldnt be able to take turns at higher speeds and it just screws up the handling and drivability but i would like to maybe have a 3.5" lowering block to close the gap i have between the tire and fender in rear...dont know if thats availavle tho or buy a wider taller tire for the rear but then wouldnt all look the same I rather just have all the tires same size and just lower the rear 1/2" more and go for that stance looks killer and I still would have gap room for the suspension and still not rub

the main reason I dont really sell anything lower is a couple reasons, the front going any lower will scrub the innner fenders, if you look at the distance also from the control arm to the frame, it will be extremely close with the lowering kit as it is, going farther will leave you with virtually no travel, plus the tie rod ends are allready at an extreme angle so bump steer would increase greatly
on the rear with more than 3 inch drop you get two things, one is no travel, more than a three and you will actually bottom pulling in and out of mcdonalds and it would actually pick up one of the rear tires from having no travel, and the driveshaft at that level would need to be shortened as no to wear into the tail of the trans
 
its a 3-5 drop...had to put bump stops on front wanted to rub when i hit dips in the road...and as far as my rims they are chromed i polish and buff them twice a month:)
 
Tito, why don't you look into getting air bags or something? That way you could adjust ride height on the rear. Don't know if that's your thing, but could be an option.

Wonder how u can get one?

@tito:

Maybe qa1 shocks is an option? They would lower these trucks by 0.5" I thought.
