It's important to have the beginning measurements before you begin working on your truck so you have something to refer back too.
Now with everything cleared out of the way on the rear of the truck, it was time to start installing the 6" drop kit from ECE. Just a few shots of the rear of the truck prior to the transformation:
Side note, I'm actually glad the PO marked the tires Rear L, Rear R....
Everything that had to go:
Rear Springs
Rear Shock
Upper Shock Mounts (grind factory rivets out)
Lower Shock Mounts
Stock Panhard Bar (incl. trailing arm mount and differential bolt)
Rear Bump Stops
So we started by getting the truck supported by jack stands in front of the rear wheels, and proceeded to remove the rear wheels. With the truck now on jack stands we broke out the sawsall and went to work on the exhaust; followed by the rear shocks.
