Looks great! I'd like to see some pics with the sun hitting it, not creating a shadow.

Thinking the same thing - looks like there's a car in the space on the driver's side though. Great looking stance though. Making me think I'll def want to go 2/3 vs 2/4 w/ the 24s.

Hey guys,
I will get a pic of it all cleaned up in the sun when I get back home from offshore..I'm dropping it off next Thursday morning for the stereo install and will get it back on Friday so I'll get some new pics by the weekend for you guys..IHaveamustang I would def go 2/3 opposed to 2/4..Keep in mind that I have some 1.5" spacers installed opposed to the 1" that comes in the kit..It sat dead level with the 1" spacers but I didn't like the look..I guess because of the big cab..Even tho it was level,It looked like it was squatting if that makes sense..Here is a pic of it with the 1" spacers installed..This was right after I finished installing the kit,That's why the Center caps are missing on the wheels....

Looks real good. I like the stance of that. I think that is my next mod is to get rid of my Groundforce springs in the back and get the Belltech. Just don't like the way mine sits

There is some variable on these trucks that I'm not accounting for. I've seen 2/3 drops that look great (yours) and seen others that look like a Tonka truck.

Look at this one (timjohnson22's ride on here). It's the same kit w/o the rear spacer (so 2/4). Looks perfect to me.
(can't get a link directly to the pic, so just hit his cardomain page):

Guess I'll have to do some trial and error here (or call Tony when I'm under the car) to get the drop I want. I'm just surprised to see what looks like so much fluctuation on the same drop, same size wheels, and same chassis.

Maybe the handling of the auto-ride is the culprit.

I couldn't agree with you more on what you said..Others have posted that their 2/3's have a little rake in the back but like some others on here I had to install some 1.5" spacers to get the same results.Mine doesn't have autoride also..I wonder if the auto ride link adjustment has anything to do with it also.04silverL I did go with a kit from tony..It was the belltech drop struts up front with coils and 1" spacer in back with belltech shocks..To get the desired stance(Slight rake) I had to install 1.5" spacers in the rear which I got from eBay just like others here have!
