    I have a X-Metal kit on mine as well. Pretty sure it was a 2"-3" drop.

    Ironhead special .


    made my own kit .Its a 2 /3 .With 304/45/22 nittos


    I got a set of 3/4 ton springs from an 05 and bobbed them and machined my own rear drop blocks at work . Bought a monster set of u-bolts for rear axel off ebay .Then got some smaller bump stops off ebay too.
    Aluminum from work was free so was me milling down the block from a 4in piece .lol


    Probably cost me $100 bucks .But not for the faint of heart though .
