Welcome ApacheWillard! Great to have u on the site!! I'm liking what your'e starting with. Looks like a alot of fun to me. I took a coil and a little over half off the front and used jeep springs in the rear and that gave me 4.5 front and 4 rear drop. It rides good but I'm running 255/60s front and 275/60s in the rear which help. If you do a drop like mine and then run 20s or 22s the ride will be harsh. If you decide on the big wheel rubber band style tires then spend the extra money and lower it with spindles in the front. Anyone else have anything for Willard? Again Welcome!!! Didn't you just have an earthquake?
