looks dope lets see if we can get that rear down 3/4 of a inch :)

Thanks man. Also, thanks for provided me with the kit. Everything went on fairly smooth. The 1st time is always a learning process!

As for the measurements; 32-3/4 to the front fender lip, 33-1/2 to the rear lip. I like the drop like it is. The kit definitely dropped it more than I thought it would; it's a nice drop though.

Any of you alignment guru's on here?

I installed the drop kit over the weekend, took it to get aligned this morning and I feel like it's pulling to the right a bit. Wondering if anyone really understands these readings, they alway give them to me but I've never been able to make heads or tails of the results.

Tech also said that the adjustments in the caster were maxed out.

Thoughts?

all good in rear check to make sure its not bottoming out on the bumpstops when you drive it. If it does just cut the bracket off the frame and your ready to roll.

Cut the bracket off the frame? Or trim the bumpstop? I'll have to check to see if it's bottoming out, I don't think I feel her bottoming out.

Do you have any input on the alignment? Is aligning caster usually an issue with these kits? I see that Belltech offers an alignment kit for people having issues. I'm not sure if I have an issue or not, I'm just going to take it back to the shop to see if they'll recheck for issues.

You can bring it back to them and tell them to remove caster. By removing caster you will gain camber back. Also -.3 is not much to worry about but if you want to gain more camber you can do as I said above.

I do my own alignments when I can on guys trucks using my friends shop.

FKN KILLER LOOK!!!! does your autoride still work??? if it does you can shorten the links will come down more.

The autoride does still seem to be intact. I'm wondering if the compressor is running longer than it used to. I can't say I paid much attention to it running before. I set the links to the 3" specified in the intructions and installed them. I'm digging the heights as is right now so I can't say I tweak the 3" setting any further.

You can get a machine screw in rear cut it to 2.5 inches and put the link ends on. This should bring it down more.
