    Well im a college student so im constantly moving a taking **** for friends myself and stuff cuz im really the only person i know who has a truck
    NAM you hit it right on the head man but im gonna use that bottom flat leaf and put it on the top leaf (where a lowering black would go) to get it to go a lil lower.
    Also when i increase the spring rate i get less body roll and better handling

    have fun putting the thick leaf on top, you have to put your truck on jack stands and then jack the rear up and finally jack the leafs up, its a pain in the ass but your truck will be like 2 to 3 inches lower

    Post some pics when your done. Should dearch um like 4" so you no need run one block after. Hhahahaha.

    I was with one of my friends who had 5" dearched leaves. Truck was slammed. Got pulled over and cop asked why it was so low. Friend told him it was stock with stock springs. He never believed my friend so he looked underneath expecting to find a drop block. Comes back and is like, well theres no block so i cant really prove the truck is dropped, it does look extremely low though, lower then usual, so instead your getting a ticket for tint. Hahahahahah. 4 tickets at $179 a pop. Hahahahaha. Dick cop.

    So if you get stopped just tell um its all stock.

    Oahu - Haha...well imma just get them dearched until theyre flat
    And they wont be that low im running 215 65 15s so if i get em low theyll rub like hell
    The top of the wheel well will probally be about two inches above the tire.
    haha yeah i got pulled over a couple weeks ago cuz the rear of my truck was so high that you can see my exhaust cut off after the stock muffler.
    Dgr - well i havent called to get a price yet cuz it wont be happening till maybe before thanksgiving but ill let you know my hope is less than 200 ?
