That is the 6" spring? It doesnt look like it sits as low as the white esky ext that you did

I'm still using the autoride in rear thats why

So this is your 4/6 correct tony?

no
my truck had the higher height OEM front springs on it. Gm had 3 different spring rates they used (hybrid/mine/and regular ones) Stock sat at 36.75 which is the high rate version. I did the spindles and brought it down to 34.75 and did my strut mod which did another 1 3/16s in front

I have on the truck
front and rear djm swaybars
front spindles
my strut mod
rear djm hardware kit
rear free travel mod with new bumpstops I put on frame
Rear my 6 inch drop springs
Rear custom autoride links
Rear spohn panhard bar


im going to prob adjust the rear links again and get the rear down more once i drop the front down. I just need to take the front apart and machine another groove in it.

im also trying to get more low with the 305 35 24 not really rubbing in front and its getting close. at 33 inches ive done a few trucks and they rub especially 6 deep in there lol

the 10 inch wheels just look good with 305s on them beefy so kinda dont want to drop down to a 295

man what a night. I ended up just saying f it and doing more grooves. I ended up setting my truck at 33.25 from ground to fenderlip and on 305 35 24 its the lowest I would go. On big dips the front will just tap the plastic liner up top no problem. I then wanted to test it out so ended up putting the truck at the lowest groove and it sat at 32 5/16 from ground to fenderlip. Camber kit would be needed but 305 35 24 rubbed to much id prob do a 295 30 24 for no rub. Even 295 35 24 would rub to much at that height.

I will get pics tomm. im going to have to set the rear autoride links up so back sits at 32.5
