3/5 drop or level

[ChevyDieselLLY]

Right now the back is stock and the front has the bolts far enough out to where the cv's are flat. I need new shocks but want to fix my front end from wearing out the tires so fast. Might do the pitman and idler support. Just looking for in put.

I will post pics in the morning

Thanks

A 2" shackle with overload removed should sit you near perfectly level when the t bar bolts are removed. Should provide approx. 3" drop all around. I like that look personally and it's not so much drop that the truck become useless off road. I love a clean dropped truck but the utilitarian factor is lost when you get much lower.

I'm never going to go as low as I did on my lbz. Much more than 3" shackle and overload gone makes it 10x worse to lower a truck.

I love the way my truck sits with the 3/5 setup! I am going to go with some 285/50's though after these 305's wear
Out!

Thanks a bunch man, between waiting for parts to get powdercoated , and me shattering my tibia/fibula and surgery. I have not driven the truck in alittle over a month. It's killing me! I'm dropping the rear one more notch of the djm hanger as soon as I get time to now. Or may keep it like that who knows. It rides beautiful though with the adjustable rancho 9000's

What size wheel you running? Is that a 22? Any rubbing issues with the 305s?

 

[Devon]

20's with 305/50's the rub on the inside pretty good. I gotta go down to maybe a 285/50 or something like that. I don't care much about the rubbing. It would be nice if they didn't though.

On my previous wheel and tire setup in my profile pic thing I was running the 305/50s as well and when I went to my new wheels I went down to the 285/50s and love them with no rubbing!
