Here's my truck now. For the longest time I was bolts out 3" shackle and OL pulled but I finally bit the bullet

Currently on mcgaughys 2" drop spindles with bolts relaxed. And a djm hanger/shackle in the rear with OL still out and both on the highest setting. On 20x10 -24 xd wheels and 285/50/20 420s

I've had great luck with the stock GM arms, I got 90-170k out of the balljoints with the trucks leveled, and rough roads.

Any other brand stock uca is gonna eat balljoints. I've put 3 on mine in 20k

My LLY had the stock balljoints at 180k and I had a driver side fail so I changed everything

Got a few compliments on my current truck in a different post and had quite a few compliments on my last truck I posted in here. Here is my new baby!

She is lowered on 2" shackles in the back (only size they sell), rear overload leaf removed, front tbar bolts dropped down 10 full turns (almost all the way out), and front bump stomps cut (which I believe lets the front end sag a little more). I have almost exactly 2" of rake front to back. She is on 20x10 -25 offset wheels and 305/50's. Fender mod done in the front with absolutely no rubbing!

Even having the DEF tank on there still the truck makes it look good. It is very tastefully done man!:thumb:

I heard something about the new GM replacement arms having crappy joints

Looks good Joe, what about rare parts control arms?

Let me know if i can be of any help!

I was going for cost effectiveness. Lol

Tlyons , that looks sharp

Thanks man! I can barely see yours in your profile pic but it looks pretty dang good and from the sounds of your signature has some money invested! You got her posted anywhere with better pics?!

:roflmao: Thanks! That means a lot cause that DEF tank is piss ass ugly!!! Hopefully it will be a goner in the next month and make the truck look a whole lot cleaner!

Finally ditched the shitty lowering keys and did DJM lower arms. Nice to be able to adjust alignment now. It's just a smidge shy of a 4/6
