Lowered the truck some more.... FOR FREE!!!

I think it dropped it a good 1-1.5". I like it.

Well, it's not really permanent, it's loaded down with stone and concrete...

I want to drop the front another inch someday and I have 2" blocks for the rear. It's gonna look sweet someday...

Ride quality is good, but unfortunately, when you take a truck that's already slow as hell and add hundreds of pounds to the bed, you make it super slow as hell

Man, we need some rain too, my yard is lookin' a little dead...

My truck actually rides quite a bit better after I lowered it. Yours looks good, I really like the red!

I like it too! I already have 2" spindles on it, so based on the pic I want to add another 1" lowering spring up front and finally install my rear 2" drop blocks (so probably about another 1/2" lower in the rear from the pic). Should look pretty sweet with a real small rake! If the rake is a bit much, I may have to get 2.5" blocks... blocks are real cheap... all in good time...

Here's what it looked like stock for reference... slightly nose high and goofy lookin'
