    I think if you plan to run those big ol steelies, the 2wd fenders will make it look nice and flush. I say keep runnin them. Keep it up dude... your truck's lookin good:waytogo:

    Low is where it is sitting. Sorry bro not sure exactly. I have torsions turned and b/j flip in front, and back has 3in blocks and middle leaf pulled. Plus i have blown shocks so that helps with the sagging and 195/60/14in tires on which made it go alittle lower to.

    Ya it rides ok, the only time i hit frame is when i hit a dip or a big bump. Im like 1 1/2 inches away from the frame. I need a notch bad.

    Yeah I have 4 inch angled blocks but i am thinking about pulling a leaf to get a little more. I would like to get another 1/2 to 1 inch drop as long as the ride wasnt horrible.

    With the middle leaf pulled you will have about 1/2" of travel with the bump stop pulled. You will smack the frame a LOT.

    Yeah I figured as much. I probably should have went with 3 inch blocks and pulled the mid leaf
