Also it got a bit lower since I’ve posted. Kind of forgot I started this.

I watched a show about border patrol in Texas--they really beat the hell out of their trucks.

Yea there’s border live and border wars. I certainly saw some beat to hell ones when I was at Chicago motors but my interior was mint, it’s got one small dent on the hood and when I changed all the fluids, everything had royal purple in it. I’m quite happy with my purchase.

You basically just cut the bracket that the bump stop is on off of the frame and then install a much smaller universal bump stop.
You just need to watch the gas tank on the drivers side. I put a piece of steel plate between it and the frame to protect it while cutting. Passenger side is much easier. With my lowering springs installed it was basically sitting on the bump stops.

I noticed you stated you have an air bag, is it just a helper bag? What is the complete list of parts you used to lower it? It's the exact look I've been thinking about!! I'm also not far from denver (scottsbluff,ne)

Helper bags. Airlift 60742

Bell tech 2” drop spindles
Bell tech rear spring kit 34324 (5305 springs)

You can buy it as a kit but it’s cheaper on eBay for them separate. That rear kit includes shock relocation brackets too.

I wouldn’t mind it lower but I think my wife is going to be mainly driving it so I don’t need the bumper busted off haha.

All 4 corners rubbed so I had to use a heat gun and massage all of the liners.
