Front - 32.75 inches - Belltech 2" drop spindles & Belltech drop struts
Rear - 34.5 inches - Belltech 5323 Springs and Belltech shocks

Going to have to raise the front up a bit. I can't turn without major rubbing. I also want the rear to come down another inch. It's the difference in the 5305 (which I need) and the 5323 (which I have). I'll be ordering the rear kit and the 5305 springs in a week or so. Going raise the fron up a half inch or inch till I stop rubbing as bad. I'll also be heating the plastic, but heating it now won't help at all...

So I need 2 new tires anyways, so I'm going to do 295/35/24 for the front 2 tires instead of 305/35/24 and raise it just a hair, up to 33" and see what happens...

Haven't updated it in a little while. I got the 295/35/24 tires up front, still a little rubbing, but I'm waiting for my 5305 springs to arrive to finish up the suspension. Then I can cut/trim/heat the areas I need to.

Also bought:

DJM Rear Hardware kit (Trailing Arm Relocation Brackets,Shock Extenders, and Swaybar Shorter Endlinks)

Air Lift Rear Air Spring Helper Bag Kit #60769

Belltech Front Camber Kit

And since I'm almost done with the outside, it's time to start working on the inside...
