Should I drop it or leave alone??
Been debating to lower down the stock height for less air struggle ride and handling. The real improvement for handing and ride involves proper shocks, struts, spindles, but Im not wanting to jump to that route just yet. This is my daily driver/hauler, work truck. But It would take out the lean play if it were down an inch or so, back sits higher than front, maybe just drop back to match front??

Re: Should I drop it or leave alone??
I would always say lower it when asked that question but I'm not sure in your case. I think I'd just tighten up the front end and drive it.

Re: Should I drop it or leave alone??
If it were me. I would leave it as is. My step side is like yours, higher at the rear. I like it that way. Whatever you decide its a cool truck either way.

Re: Should I drop it or leave alone??
What about taking the front up to match the rear?

Hauler! Then I would say leave it alone and maybe maintain or upgrade your suspension.
Nice truck. |

I'd leave it alone unless your going to upgrade the rims and tires.

Re: Should I drop it or leave alone??
Huh!?
The back is supposed to sit higher. It's a truck. Not sure why people want to buy trucks, then turn them into cars. |

Re: Should I drop it or leave alone??
The back always sits higher so when you load it down it levels out.
