Lowing

[Ducati18]

With the 3/5 lowwer can I keep the same shocks for the auto-ride?

Yes as long as you use shock extensions. I'd recommend belltech, my truck rides great with the 5/6 drop of whatever the hell it sits at now.

do those auto-ride setups have the same shit in the rear? like sway bar and trailing arm.. I cant see why they wouldn't but no one mentioned getting sway bar and trailing arm relocators.

also, so you get an idea of how low these trucks are when specific drops i can try to point you to some pics... I have a 2/3 drop (however I maxed out my front keys and got almost 3 in the front) so probably more like 3/3 on my truck. Blueflammed also has a 2/3. Check his out because that is what most of these trucks look like with a 2/3.

I am not sure if anyone has 22's AND a 2/3 on this site. I think JK has a 3/5 on 24's. I forget what grocery getter is rolling with.

at the end of the day a 2/3 will clean up that nasty wheel well gap for you and improve the body roll... however if you like em low, i too would prolly recommend the 3/5... but like mentioned before, i think with that 3/5 you need to consider your wheel offset.

Sorry for asking but how much is the 5/6 kit and is there alot of custum stuff you have to do. Is it sold as a hole kit or do you have to call them up and they out it together for you.

They don't make a kit, I built mine. Everyone seems to think you need to relocate the control arms and sway bar when I'm running a larger aftermarket sway bar and stock arms with a 6" drop. I work on lifted trucks everyday and know pinion angle/sway bar relocation is critical on modified suspensions but these trucks are quite a bit simpler than people make them out to be. I'm sure the relocation doesn't hurt but I don't think it is at all necessary until you're bagged out 10" lower than stock out back.

i sell teh djm rear hardware kit by itself so you can go with the belltech front/rear and the djm kit to save yah money.

belltech 2/3 is a nice set up also for what you want to do.
