LOL I'm actually planning to put my tires on top of the car, thats how low I want to go lol. Joke but thanks to NORCALL SS and you all, I understand truck suspension much more and importance of bagging. I am leaning to no drop for now and just shocks and sway bar. Assumption that 2" drop in rear alone will be minimal improvement unlike the real drops like 2/3+ that you guys are doing.

Hope this feedback is helping others on the fence about how low they want to go.

In all seriousness a 2/3 drop with upgraded swaybars and a helper bag kit and you'll have a great dd with a awesome stance

LOL, I believe yaw but my pockets require Ido this in partition. Aiming for shocks and sway bars. During income tax in a year or 2, i'll do the drop and bags at the same time. I would do it all at once but need to prepare for anything that can come up.

But Ideal setup sounds like 2/3 drop with bags and Bilsteins all over. JDM sway bars seems like the way to go. Cheaper than the rest and great reviews.

I have to remember this is a truck not a car that is already kind of low. Helper bags do not make you lose anything like spare tire right?

Right. They just sit inside the rear coil springs
