      Looking at your pictures igowen, your truck sits alot higher than mine. I have factories back on and theres maybe a finger room between fneder and my tires.

      Did dropping the front to much put to much strain on the front cv? I raised my front a bit because of that. Us AWD guys cant go to low without that cv axle being in to bad of a position.

    4. Fors

      Fors

      No I went so low the cv axle wasnt long enough. Im atleast 4 minutes in the front, maybe more depending on how many inches taking the key out puts it too.

  5. decided to sell the truck next summer... so I can get the gmt-1000 trucks, slam it, boost it.

      After all that hard work you just put into it.. you didnt even get to really enjoy it being lowered.

    4. ThatTallCanadian

      ThatTallCanadian

      haha I've driven it an entire year and scraped more than half the driveways of my city. I've definitely enjoyed it, entered lots of shows and such.

       

      I'm more excited to be the first with a slammed boosted 2014

      bagging is different because it still brings the angles on the cv's within relative reason when the truck is at a driving height with the bags filled. I kinda wanna static drop 6/8

      what the hell would you do with a dropped 2wd truck in the winter?

    4. ThatTallCanadian

      Come work in the oil fields. Living is not that much here I got my house last year when I was 21 and my SS I bought cash about 6 months later well with help from the money I got from my old clone it's not that bad out here

    4. ThatTallCanadian

      ThatTallCanadian

      Shit that ain't too bad. I don't wanna work oil tho. I wanna do some upper level managing/accounting shit. Prolly just go partner in an accounting firm or something eventually, way more money in that for me than oil.

      I tried 16" factory aluminum rims, they didn't fit.

    3. ThatTallCanadian

      ThatTallCanadian

      really? hmmm what would you guys reccomend for a rim to use at the track? I was just thinking maybe some steelies or something?

    4. paulguy

      paulguy

      I'd think 16" steel rims would work
