I used 3 inch first. To small, so I went back with 4.

Yeah its only going to be a 4.5/5 static drop. Ill look it over and see what I want to do... Since its gonna have some pretty hard HP I may look into something else to help strengthen it up some. Not going too crazy.. like 450 to 500 HP. Probably not during this phase but maybe next winter. Im pushing to have it together enough drive it some this summer to some of the local gathering spots. I should be able to get the frame, brakes, and suspension all finished up and maybe the interior and wiring.... I hope.
