Pretty sure your correct....

When I tear my truck down in the future I will probably add a notch and go 5/7.

Right now I think you would hit frame an anything that isnt smooth. My truck will never haul anything but I drive it hard and have bottomed out a couple times as it sits.

Surprised you've bottomed out so much... I haven't yet; only once.

I think I have only bottomed out 3x total.

Once over train tracks and once on the freeway on a nasty bump at about 90

front tire actually scrubbed the inner fender a tad on that one

Re: original-71 update pics after new shoes and drop

Were you able to use the u-bolts from ECE that can with the kit or did you order new ones?
