Just picked mine up last week and I can't stand how high the rear end sits - especially being a 2WD. I want to drop it just a little, leaving around a 1/2" - 1" rake. It's the wife's DD so ride quality needs to not suffer, like at all. LOL. I know ride quality is entirely subjective but you know what I mean.

It has the Nivomat shocks in the back. Is there a way to just adjust these down that little of an amount? Or do I need to find new springs and shock relocation mounts? I've looked through NorcalSS' store but didn't see anything to drop it this little of an amount.

TIA.

Just read the shocks. All you need are shock extenders should bring it down and 65 shipped I have them.

Easy way to test remove rear shocks from axle and see if comes down. If dies then all you need are the extenders and your set

Good to know. Thanks Tony.

Still have my TBSS - lowered on your 31.5" kit.
