no problem how do you like the street perf shocks on the rear?

yeah if you had spare tire in and rear bumper still on you would be under 33. if you ever decide to go lower you can drop the djm tb springs in and relese front keys a little and be at 32.75 all around and ride great still.

carcrz, what are those side skirts that you're running? i'd really like to get something like that to take the place of my factory denali running boards on my '02. Super-clean look!

Wheels & Tires:

Considered upgrades:
- Switching over to TB coils and DJM End Links with Help bags on the back or bagging the back and a Spohn adjustable Panhard bar

Brief impressions of setup:
Wish the truck rode like how it rides in the front nice and smooth, unfortunately with having the DJM coils it rides like shit in the back, With having such a small sidewall it kinda comes with its territory of having big wheels with little sidewall, Hoping in the near future i'll eventually upgrade to the TB coil with DJM End links should take care of the truck nicely, or might even go with a bag set up in the back..
