Ok, i'm about ready to replace my shocks and struts, so i want to go ahead and lower it at the same time.

I like the look of a 3/5 drop the best. I'm sure i'd have to trim the fender liners. does anyone know of a template?

what is the best kit for the money that will replace my tired shocks and struts?

and i would love to see some pictures from anyone who has a 3/5 or 4/5 drop on 26s.

Here is one kit the 2/3-4 adjustable and new front/rear shocks. The front struts lower the truck 2 inches and ride is nice

if your on 305 30 26 will be good. If you want to lower lower ie 3/5 you would need to go wtih this kit and 295 30 26 or 305 30 26

Rumor has it that the move up to 305s is one of the major contributors to rubbing. So, keep that in mind.

If you want to save a few bucks get the Belltech 2/4 and cut a little of the factory front coil. That will get you a 3 ish front drop.

I really like the look of belltech 2/3 drop, I think you would find that as the perfect setup too :)

Don't go searching. Drop Tony an email, and say "Tony, I need your 2/3 drop kit for my truck." And then Tony will email you back in 10 minutes with the kit you want/need. Or, just go into any of the other lowering threads. He's selling mostly the same one kit at this point, since the springs and all are dialed in.
