Ive spent too much time searchin around and have yet to find many pics of lowered CC/LBs. Im probably nuts in wanting to do this but its basically come down to the fact im bored with the truck :D. So ive been thinkin about ditchin the lift and runnin either a 2" or 3" rear drop shackle and the front at stock height or slightly lowered. Id have my work cut out for me to do this as id have to ditch my front fenders for stockers and cut my rear fenders again to move them back to the stock location. BUT before i do any of this i wanna see some pics of CC/LBs lowered to see if i really wanna do it or if the pic in my head is scewed.

Im hopin this is just a whim for me...........

Why not try going to mostly stock height with a little torsion bar drop? That's how mine sits and I get compliments all the time on it's stance. From a lift it might be a compromise that's not so extreme. Here's a few pics.

Truckin magazine online?
i want to do this too
My driveway is soo steep, a stock truck almost scrapes gettin into the garage
as soon as we move i plan to lower my rear end 4" and drop the front end 1" from stock
i have seen this done to two local trucks, 2wd, neither cc/lb, they look sweet tho
the only problem i have with a lowered truck(as i have gotten older an a little less dumb) is to look right, you really need some lo pro tires, i just cant do the lo pro's on a diesel, too much wieght and too little tire to tow with, for me anyways
But a full sized p/u layin frame on some bags looks siiiick

James when you say lowered what do you mean?
Slightly lower than stock? Or slammed, mild or wild

James check out DJM website their 3/5 display is a cc/lb

ill check them out

Finally coming to your senses lol

lol sorta. when i walk out to the truck each mornin, i think differently though :D

:roflmao::thumb::eek::woott::hello:
haha this is awesome

you shut your c**k holster you :angel:. that front bumper will go up in price ;) :D

mostly stock hieght is the plan but i gotta have the truck level, hence the 2-3" rear drop shackle. i cant have that nose down rake, ive never liked it.

James do it:D Nick is going down:thumb:

:woott: :D

oh i know. if i can get ahold of the cut off bracket for the lower left front a arm, it will make it much eaiser. i just dont know what kind of UCA i would run at stock hieght. might build my own. i really am not lookin forward to cuttin the rear inner part of the rear fenders again. i welded in sold strips of sheetmetal all the way around so its hard to tell i cut it lol

James <3 lowered trucks

i like all trucks ;)

just slightly lower than stock at most. the whole slammed thing wouldnt work when i go to the sand dunes with my toyhauler. id get stuck in a hurry.

A lot of work to take the lift off. Sometimes i really regret doing it. Everyday use of the truck is a lot better though.
