That's so nice, I can't believe that is a 2/3 drop. Good job, I would be proud if I had that truck.

thx bro!! its now actually a 3/4 drop. the belltech 2/3 drop kit comes with a rear 1" spacer that you can choose to use or not. if you use it, its a 3" drop. i didnt use it so it ended up becoming a 4" drop.

the front was initially dropped 2" but since i installed the adjustable Belltech drop struts, i dropped it another inch so now its a 3" drop.

my measuremens up front from ground to fenderlip center is 33", while the measurements in the rear center is 33 3/4"-34"

UPDATE. Well I sent one more hail mary email to Pedders asking for help and they knocked my socks off with the reply.

"We have not had any problems with these, so I am not sure if you got a bad set or what the issue was. The life on the struts should be much longer than one year, and like I said I am not sure exactly what the problem is and I can not 100% guarantee that there won’t be a problem again, but I can tell you that myself and Pedders will make sure we take care of you in the future as a Pedders Customer. "

So I may be keeping my kit after all. I am very happy they are hooking me up as I was expecting to be out in the cold after all the email that went unanswered.

Ditto on that! I've been running the full Pedders kit for about 8 months now and for me it's just about ideal. The damping is a little more abrupt than stock but no way would I call it harsh. (If you want harsh, try Bilstein sport setting shocks!) Of course ride quality can be pretty subjective.....
